When I Was Eleven
I lost my mom. This effected me the most out of the family, because I was the closest to her. I really didn't expect anything this tragic to happen. But just shows how anything can happen. My mom and dad were fighting and yelling and everything, so I wanted to get out of the house. I called up my friend Kaitlyn and she picked me up. It was at least four hours later, and I tried calling the house phone. Maybe they had calmed down. But noone would pick up. I just asked to get drove back home. When I arrived there were police outside my house, parked in my driveway.
"Oh my god." I got out of the car and started running up the driveway. As I was running I noticed my mom's bracelet that I had made her like five years ago, was on the ground. I picked it up confused and ran inside. The police were taking pictures of a gun that was found on my couch.
"I'm their daughter, what's going on?"
The cop told the other cop that he would talk to me in private about what happened.
"We found your mom dead on the kitchen floor after we got a call from the neighbors claiming they heard a gun shot. We came in and your father was holding the gun sitting on the couch."
I stood speechless. I had no words to say. I started shaking. "Your aunt and uncle are gonna take you in."
I gripped my moms bracelet. And closed my eyes. And just fell to my knees and starred at the ground. Tears started rolling down my cheek. I thought I was dreaming. Why would my father shoot my mother? They had no problems except for that one night..
And the most important thing to me in the world right now is that bracelet. I wear it every single day. And will never take it off.
After that. I started having nightmares. I had to go to therapy for a while. And I will never ever ever get over the fact my own father shot her. He's in prison. And I'm living with my aunt and uncle like the cop said. I'm scarred for life.
"My Heart Never Knew Lonliness, Until You Went Away."
Rest easy mommy. You didn't deserve it. And I know you looking down on me. I miss you more than words can explain. And if anything, I want you here. I Love You.
It's been a year today since you've been gone. <3
Click the heart in rememberance of her, and if you have lost someone close to you and comment who you lost if you'd like <3
