you were half of me
the toasted side
a little too burnt at times
and sometimes I wish I could eat
toast half buttered
half, not whole
you have been my better half
the lost half
the frustration to my goodness
the marionberry ice cream to my friday night
and somehow we got to the half that matters
most.
Helen Pendergast
one half of me is my family
the other half is my own
we may share a home
DNA
holidays
but there is a whole other part of myself that they don’t see
with friends I am funny
caring
selfless
all hearing
but this is something they don’t allow me to be

En la mitad del tiempo que llevaba sentada solo había pensado en una cosa. En ella. Cómo estaría, qué estaría haciendo… Estaba tan frustrada. Era horrible… Era como si todo ocurriera por alguna razón y no sabía cuál era. No lo sabía de ninguna manera.
