⚠️ Content Warning ⚠️

What does one even write? I live in grief.
My dad told me "sad news"
my nephew committed suicide this morning. I still don't believe any of it.
I have flashes of him as a child. Funny memories. A completely different life for all of us-detached from the actual wreckage of what it has become.
I have flashes of a time long ago, my mother calling, always calling. Calling.
My cousin took his life.
A year later his older
brother would do the same.
I remember the day. I was starting a new chapter in my life in a new city. I noticed how the fall leaves swirled around me.
I thought it was a beautiful day.

Yesterday, we had a small amazing dinner.
Me, my dad, my niece.
I remember thinking how it was a nice day And how i shouldn't think about it that way because something bad eventually happens.
It's been a year now since their dad passed away. Murdered but no charges. Their mom, my sister, passed a year or so before.
It's like we live in a world of the past. Not by choice. Always pulled back there, a different time in our lives, different places.
I worry about all my nieces and nephews. This life is unrelenting and unjust.
we are here for such a short time.
We just have to make it through a little longer. So creator can tell us why.
