Work Text:
You said you’d never leave
and I had trusted you
but I should have never believed
in you.
I know why you had to
and that it was no one’s fault
but that doesn’t mean I won’t have to
blame myself for everything you kept in that vault.
I know that I’m just a child
and that I shouldn’t need to know any of this
but I already have it filed
away in the back of my mind, for your next crisis.
I love you, Mom, I truly do, but I need some time.
I promise I’ll save you again, when your mind decides that it’s wartime.
