my parents seem unaffected by the silent night and chat as per daytime about their latest misadventure, the details repeatedly gone over, without any sign of receding into obscurity they alternate between expressing pride in their self-professed mature understanding of life and lamenting about their stupidity, each taking turns to cry and comfort I wish money isn't an issue and they can move on, regardless of the evil ploys/allocated missions the compassionate/heartless bank officer has in mind for them I beg them to keep it low and apply some more powder on my rash, stung by my need and failure to provide [This message has been edited by kaile (02-21-2003 11:16 AM).] |

They raised a good son... I am so sorry for their plight... harder times are ahead for many of us, I fear... |

wow kaile, raw feelings here. i like this a lot. your last line says it all. you dont want to hear another word, as you feel totally helpless in the situation. it would be nice for it all to be washed away as we sleep, waking up with no memory of the previous nights sadness. but i'm glad you wrote this, despite not wanting you to be feeling so bad. caring and being aware like you are, is support in itself. i'm impressed kaile, I beg them to keep it low and apply some more powder on my rash, stung by my need and failure to provide love these ending thoughts. lots of love, gemma xxxxxxxxxxxx learning each day, for you and i, our paths have met, i've already learnt that you are love. |
