my dad and my brother drove my mother away. they didn't need her. so she left. and they did just fine without her. she lived alone for the rest of her life, and still does. their lives went on. daddy remarried and lived happily ever after. eric grew up and married and had kids... happily ever after. my mom gave her life to raising the kids, keeping the home, taking care of my dad. but eventually, gradually, they tired of her. they figured out they could live just fine without her so they drove her away with the cold critical way they treated her.
so it is with me. go away for a year. no one needs you here. no one will even miss you or notice you're gone, except maybe to feel a little freer or happier without you around. all the years, all the dreams and hopes for the future. thinking i had it all figured out. thinking ppl really loved me and appreciated me. but i guess this happens sometimes. the ppl you spend you whole life trying to take care of and love and dedicating your life to, they decide you are no longer needed. and it's just fine with them if you just move away.
merry christmas.
