growing up, i always thought my parents would drift apart.
they would divorce.
i was afraid they'd argue a little too hard
so hard that they couldn't take it anymore.
i was afraid to be separated from my siblings.
i was afraid they would never talk again.
i guess life did what i was the most afraid of.
they took my mum away, without my dad with her.
she left us, but it wasn't her fault.
i'm sur they're still so close.
but i feel like they're still really far away and pulled apart.
to my mom, gone way too early.
