Why is this the reality of my life?
My mom's a lesbian.
My dad's pitiful.

...they're still together,
but he just hides the truth.

I told my brother I had a question.
That it was about our family.
He said 'stop!'...
I know what you're gonna say.
Don't bother.
It's nothing.
"What!! nothing!!"
I screamed in my head.
He knew though.
He knew all along.

Now all I can do,
is sit here... cry...
and slice my arm off.

Why is this my life??

Why ME??

...But you know what,
I still love them...

We've all asked this question. . . the answers are there. . .

Perhaps all you have to do is ask. . .

Writing helps. . .

Parents aren't perfect, they have a tough go of life sometimes too.....try to remember they are human, and they love you too. Hugs go out to you sweetie, I'm sorry your heart is hurting   -SEA
