Where do I go?

Aug 29, 2007 22:56

Old feelings, Old friends some patterns are worth repeating.  I have a lot of heavy family shit going on right now and I am close to exploding with it.  I promised my mother that I wouldn't tell anyone and enough people  on here know me personally.  I will write about it when I can the specifics anyway.  The general of it is yet again I have to step up and be the adult and bear the brunt of the pain.  My apathy makes me perfect for this, or is it why I am apathetic?  I always had to stand up and 'be the man' when no one else was willing to.  I remember making the coffee and turning on the shower and forcing my parents in there when my grandma died.  I remember talking to my pastor at 4 am that morning giving him directions to the funeral home that she had chosen.  I knew which one because I talked to the lawyer while they were all bawling in the backround I was only 13.  The rest of my innocence would be taken that next year.  I can't helpbut flinch at shadows.  I remember my brother clutching his bible like it would protect him.  I remember picking out my fathers tie and running a brush through my mothers hair.  This is eating me up but I am drowning the noise with alcohol just as I have learned to do.  I have the feeling that disaster is close.
