My happy family memories
My Happy Family
by Sueswrite
This is for all of those adults who wished for a happy family too.
I gently stepped from my bed and quietly slid open my closet door, just enough.
I slipped back into bed and positioned my pillow on the edge, where I rested my head and waited.
Each night they emerged from under my bed, holding hands, laughing, giggling. My happy family.
They'd walk across the tiny rug, step into the open closet, and soon disappear until the next night. Every night I waited.
Their name unknown when I ran from that home and never returned.
Each night my closet is opened, just enough. I wait.

I truly believed that I owned a happy family and that they were real. I still do. They were my only family, the happy ones. This is the true image of me waiting to hear the sounds I so dreamed of all of my young days and yes, this is my artwork.
