Tears
by Michelle Homer
When I read what I have written..
.
I cry
Always
Still
After all these years.
Will it never end?
"Don't personalize his outbursts," I am told.
How not to?
When I answer my cell phone
and he says,
"I'm not talking to you bitch, I'm calling dad"
On MY cell phone.
And he's only 10.
Still 10.
How will I survive?
How will he survive?
How not to personalize?
How to continue to love?
