daughter children son
I have never understood why it is called losing a child. No parent is that careless. We all know exactly where our sons and daughters are; we just don't necessarily want them to be there
expectations way beats
Nowadays, I dont have expectations, and this way she beats them all.
looks forgotten bigs
I look for places like me: big, hollow, forgotten by most everyone.
forgiving way communicate
After all, the only way to communicate is to find someone who can comprehend; the only way to be forgiven is to find someone who is willing to forgive.
my-family my-sisters-keeper ought
In my family, we seem to have a tortured history of not saying what we ought to and not meaning what we do.
tables realizing my-sisters-keeper
This is when I realize that Anna has already left the table, and more importantly, that nobody noticed.

It is so easy to presume that while your own world has ground to an absolute halt, so has everyone else's.

rocks two once-upon-a-time
It is so strange, to encounter an ex. It's as if you're in a foreign film, and what you're saying face-to-face has nothing to do with the subtitles flowing beneath you. We are so careful not to touch, although once upon a time, I slept plastered to him in our bed, like lichen on a rock. We are two strangers who knows every shameful secret, every hidden freckle, every fatal flaw in each other.
