the tension in the air is as thick

as cement. the looks they exchange

are as black and lifeless as the

asphalt that makes up the road.

i know mother that you are not

happy, but I don't want my second

father to walk out because now im

starting to not believe in love.

and dad, i know you are miserable

but so am i because the few words

we exchange are only simple "heys"

and "how was your day?". my

grandmother is suppose to be visiting

from europe, she's suppose to be visiting

family, only theres not family to visit

anymore. i am starting to turn into

cement because maybe if we turn to

stone, time will stop, and i will not

have to witness my family be torn

apart once again.
