Grown-Up Calls
Hey Grandma-
I’m calling because-
No. No, I’m fine. Mom just yelled at me again-
I know I shouldn’t cry about it-
Hey Grandma-
Mom is sleeping away everything-
She’s not even there anymore-
Why is she so god damn lazy-
No I haven’t talked to her-
Grandma? Its me-
I just want her support-
I hate her-
No I really do-
I’m never talking to her again-
Grandma? Are you okay? –
I’m so sorry she said that-
She shouldn’t have done that-
I hate her more now-
Its all her fault-
That’s the last straw-
Hey, Grandma-
Fuck her!-
She never loved me-
One day I will be able to never talk to her again-
Then ill be happy-
Grandma…-
Mom is okay-
Mom told me about the depression-
Dad said he’s sorry-
Mom wants to help me move-
Yeah…I’m a little numb about it-
I'm glad she's not dead-
…

Hey Mom, its Alison-
I know…
I’m sorry too-
It’s okay Mom-
I forgive you-
I love you too Mom.
