Dear Mama

Dear Mama,

You've been gone over a decade now and in that time I had to face that your obsession with the man who sired me kept myself and my siblings in a horrific place. Filled with abuses that covered all one could imagine and a few most people would prefer not to admit exist.

I came across letters from you and I had to wonder what to do with them, throw them away in bitter anger or keep them in memory of the good times that we did have when he wasn't around.

I have decided to keep them, to forgive the woman who knowingly let him hurt us and remember the mama who combed my hair, cooked for us, pampered me when I was sick and always accepted me for who I was. Her, I miss so much...and I pray to the Goddess that you get reborn into a good life this time, free from the issues that glued you to a bastard like our sire.
