A mother's love
A father's warmth
A sister's support
3 things I wish to acquire
But never require
Yet wanting to transpire
A hug
A simple "congratulations"
A simple "I'm proud of you"
3 things a child only wishes to be received
Yet so far to be achieved.
An "I love you my child"
Is all I ask...
But they were never up to task...
The thing about the pandemic is that it exposes the harsh reality we aren't meant to figure out. A falling out of a family we thought was held together. Only to be broken from the inside. I wanted to have a good family. A family that was proud of what I had become only to receive such disdain and disappointment each time.
