i just got home from work, mama now i understand i remember wondering why you always had a drink with dinner now i understand worked all day long today, till i was exhausted, and i STILL had to go get the eggs and the milk. now i understand walked home from the store in the dark, my feet aching        burning                  aching                             burning with every step. now i understand got my computer out to play music while i cooked dinner for myself, and it was dead. i almost screamed with frustration. now i understand this house seems so empty when i'm alone. i miss you, mama. i know now why you always had a drink with dinner. i understand, mama. and i'm grateful.
