the days are growing darker,

our time growing shorts,

and the days are much colder.

i don’t want to stay here forever,

yearning for it to get warmer

to break the spell i’m under.

i don’t know if you

are spending the season alone,

but just know i miss you too.

i learned to zip my own dresses

no matter how hard,

curl my own hair

no matter the burn.

i learned to cook by myself

no matter the mess,

and i learned somehow

that mother knows best.

“Don’t forget that you’re human. It’s ok to have a meltdown. Just don’t unpack and live there. Cry it out and then refocus on where you are headed.”

neglectful parents

make bitter children

who will forever roam

and never return.

their hearts are nasty,

and they light bridges

just to watch them burn.

because the lack of love

makes them broken

and live all alone,

thinking they’re the ones

that caused their broken home.

- parents
