Festering Wound
Today I met you for the first time, you seem so nice and friendly. Too many years have passed, as you grew from a kid to a lady. Too bad the family was not closer, many miles have separated us all. I gave you so much, then you lied and took from behind my back. How does one do this to family, even if it is in name only. You are like a festering wound, raw and hurting the ones that love you.
