Tear's
I walk in, see you sitting there crying
Your face tells of so much pain it's hard to describe it.
I sigh, walk over to sit beside me. You break down and lean into my chest until you can hear my heart beat. Its steady beat comforting you because it doesn't stop. Doesn't halt in its beat.
It won't abandon you. Not until you no longer need it, or want it. I try to comfort you but my heart isn't in it. "It's will all be alright," and "she's in a better place," don't feel true, but you pretend that it's working. For my sake as much as your own.
You calm down slightly, your breathing in time with mine. I wish you didn't have to go through this. That I could take away your pain. Suffer for you, in your place.
I'm not as strong as you think I am. I'm not as strong as you. In your position, I don't think I could survive. I would have followed her out of this world and into the next.
Mind you, I would never be in your position. I don't have that kind of relationship with my mom. My mom is never home, and when she is, she doesn't bother spending time with me. I wish she would notice me sometimes. Acknowledge my existence. Make me feel like more then an object that they wanted to be able to brag about at dinner parties. Is that selfish of me, I wonder.
Your shallow breaths, ragged with tears, wake me out of my day dream. I can't change what's happening to you, I can't take back what she did. What you had to watch. No one should have to see that.
Life is cruel. Everyone knows that but most of us don't actually know what that means. You do.
Not only have you lost one mother but two. One to drugs and poverty and one to a car accident.
Its not your fault. Cant you see that. it wasn't you that drove her to it.
You didn't tell her to go through that red light. She did it to get to you but she didn't have to. You would have forgiven her for being late eventually. I just hope that you can see how much she loved you and forgive her for wanting to be there for you.
She loved you more then you'll ever know. Through the thick and the thin, she loved you.
She will always love you.
Don't forget that Peyton. You deserve that love and I wish you had never lost it.
Hey so tell me what you think. I didn't actually write this for this but I like it and decided to change it to fit in with this story line. Please review BURGIRHIG..
