I felt you there,
I thought I heard you say,
"where
did you send me? why did they take me away?
he lies to your face but you stayed and now I'm gone."
and you're not wrong
I failed as your mom.
you didn't even exist long
enough to have a name.
and he treated it like a game.
not a life.
such strife you'd see
but it would have been okay,
you'd have been with me at the end of the day. I would have kept you safe.
he stole you and I let him, though I didn't want to. and I'm sorry, mina, forgive me.
love, kristina.
