October 10

As I greeted the world two familiar but not so familiar voices are there waiting for me

Like they expected me, tears and smiles were expressed that day,

October 10

Those two taught my to read and write

Kissed my boo boos when i fell over and got me back up mum was there holding my hand sometimes dad

"Daddy" the first words to leave my mouth that made sense, but why daddy

Mummy was the one there holding my hand and picking me up

Eventually my legs could pick themselves up one after the other

I didn't think mummy's hand was important anymore but she always gave it to me

October 10

We sat around a cake

I'm struggling to blow out the candles but mummy blew them out with me

Daddy was focused on my brother

As more october 10's came around

When my brain could finally see what was going on

I noticed daddy was yelling at brother but why he only spilt a glass of water,

Dad scared me

I noticed that dad yelled at mummy about who did the groceries

Dad ended up winning the yelling

He always did

2 more october 10's later

This was my 3rd year in ballet during my dance, spinning around the room

As i didn't know my worlds split, my families split

1 more october 10 dad was gone

He had moved into a apartment

I still saw daddy but he wasn't angry anymore

Daddy was back

Daddy never yelled at me though

Only mummy and brother

Mummy's arms welcomed me during these tough times

Mummy's arms were there when i had surgery, i screamed and cried and kicked,

Mummy never let go of me, She is my safe space

Mummy's hand was there walking me to school

Mummy's hand was there when I got diabetes

October 10

"Happy birthday"

"Hope you have a great day"

2 years had past

How was it great i had two homes

Two places to call home

Which one is home

Home is in mummy's arms

We went to disneyland we flew on a plane
