I Remember

Mother's day blues

Mother's day is a huge holiday back home. With my mom being gone those days where the saddest of my life. Everybody was off from work they would serenade their mothers so it wasnt unusual to wake up to mariachis singing away to a neighbor mother. On mother's day my grandma wouldnt do for me. I wanted my momma. After about the 3rd year I accepted my life and decided I was an orphan. My heart grew cold and I just went with the flow. My mom would call and speak to grandma while my sister and I will dodge the call, we were upset with her so I wouldn't see any reason to speak to her and get our hopes up. By this time she had a new son and I was too upset to even talk to her. I felt she was making new kids therefore we started to dissappear. Those were my thoughts. I figured out mother's day was for real mothers and I didn't think too much of my mother. Needles to say, I hated mother's day.
