Broken Family

It didn’t have to be you.

Moments in life can make us grow or tear us apart.

But you knew that from the start.

We are blood.

We grew up in the same house.

Our parents choices didn’t have to become ours.

But you knew that from the start.

Blame our parents and blame our past but you are the one repeating family history.

Bringing back old family trickery when you know that you shouldn’t be.

What life are living?

I’m worried for you and my niece.

And it kills me.

Because I know it isn’t a happy ending.
