“My mother didn’t deserve what she went through, but neither did I.

I remember praying for her happiness because if she was happy it would all be fine.

She was anger, sadness and terror, she let the darkness overtake her.

I don’t want to be like my mother, I want to be happy when I die.

My mother didn’t deserve what she went through,

But neither did I”. I love you Mom. -Katrina.
