In response to Esther Chilton’s writing prompt: FAMILY
What I’ve always longed for
but never can I find
The support of a loving family
a special person by my side
To get all together in daylight
or start of night
For birthdays and holidays
or just to celebrate life
For fun and jubilation
or smart conversations
Sometimes just to sit as one
in quiet observation
This scenario for me it seems
lives here in my imagination
My line and my kind know
only indignant justification
Upset, chaos, stress and turmoil
that’s what’s thrived upon
Watch out – be careful – look away now
it’s eggshells we must all walk on
Dysfunctional malfunction
multiplied by generations
Quietly I slip away
hiding hurt and deep frustration
