Silent Cries

I feel alone
My dreams are polluted with bloody memories
Of the days you drank until you ruptured your esophogaus
I remember getting you towels to clean up the mess
There werree gallons of blood
And i cringe remembering seeing the blood pour out of your mouth
The smell...
I shudder just writing about this
For fourteen years we were quiet about the situation
And Two years later
You have gotten help for your alcoholism
And I have talked to you about why you did the things you did
You hated yourself when larry left
I am glad he was not my Dad
And that i never knew him
But he was the biological father of my two older sisters
He was never there for them
Now my older siblings have finally gotten over our family's problems
Now we have a loving dad
And you are over your addiction
But I still hate looking back...

these experiences make us stronger, regardless of how weak you feel, you're still stronger, we're on the same page
