What Was Once There.

There was a time before I was born that my mother was so in love with my father. There was a time before I was born that they were perfect together. All that has changed now. It's like a distant dream to her and I can hardly remember their marriage. I don't remember much from when I was little but I remember the fights. I remember my dad leaving and I remember my mom leaving. I remember the year I spent without her. Everyone told me she was never coming back, that she had left for good. One long day, I came home ready to cry and I remember my mom standing there. I remember her telling me we wouldn't be apart anymore. I remember finally seeing my only mommy again and how happy I was. Since that day, I've grown up so much. She's been telling me more and more about the times I didn't know of before I was born. She's taught me how to get through life and now she's teaching me how to piece together my heart after I was the one who broke it. This lesson will take forever to learn but I know that if she just stays to talk, I can get through this. She knows I'm still in love with my prince, she knows about everything in my life. Now I think back to when she was still in love with my dad, how fast it went downhill. She's telling me what to do, how to be the best person I can be. She's there and I know that.
