The greatest gift God can give you
is to understand what happened in your life.
To have it explained.

Kids chase the love that eludes them.

For me, that was my father's love. He kept it tucked away like papers in a briefcase. &I kept trying to get in there. But, my mom I never had to work for it. I just got it for anything. But, looking back to it, I wish I didn't.

 

Me: I don't want to be ordinary.


Dad: Well, what exactly is

Me: Someone you'll forget.

Me: Why does it hurt?


Sister: cause it's to big. I don't want it big.

the divorce?
the fight?
What exactly didn't happen?

&That was that. I can't even remember him packing his stuff... One day I got home from school and the house felt so... incomplete. So.. empty. There was never a warning. 






 
 
You  can  be  a  mommy's  girl  or  a  daddy's  girl,



but, you can't both.

 So,  you  cling  onto  the  one  you  think  you  might l ose.

Mothers support certain illusions about theit children,
and one of my illusions was that I liked who I was
...because she did.
But, when she left me, so did the idea.. 



What is it about your childhood that's so hard to let go? 

Even though it was so wrecked, it's hard to believe you were a child..

Why is it so hard to forget?
