She tells me, I'm sorry I can’t make it. He tells me I'm sorry I’m too busy. They tell me, we can’t we are very busy. I tell myself I can’t because I’m too worried. But what about my life.
I need her, I need him, I need them and I need myself, we all need each other. I still desire her presence, his presence and time their love and support and my courage to stand alone.
I hope she understands. He seems to ignore me, they seem to lose interest. I seem to lack strength.
She cries for not making it. He dies in ignorance they watch in sadness while I triumph with dignity and joy of working alone making my life an Exclamation.
