My life in only a few sentences.

I Can’t help but wonder.


I can’t help but wonder…

Will it ever get better?

Are you and mom ever going to be on good terms?

Can either of you ever be mature?

I can’t help but wonder…

Are my kids going to have grandparents?

Or are their “grandparents” going to be the ones we just don’t speak about

Are you guys ever going to get your crap together?

Mom… 

I feel like I am walking on eggshells around you.

Never knowing when one might crack and you freak out.

Dad…

I feel like it is a never-ending disaster with you.

It gets better, it goes away, but the storm will always come back-

Especially when it has to do with you. 

Mom and Dad…

My sister needs her parents

Not two adults breaching forty

Acting like they’re still teenagers.

 

I am tired of adulting, I am only 18. I will never live my life.

In this Vignette I have written in my Creative writing 2 class in highschool, I have expressed my life in my writing and it was fairly difficult. I wrote the vignette trying to show my feelings from a different point of view.
