My mom is scared, I know, but she never lets the little ones know this. She tries to stay strong for them, even though she can’t always be strong. I understand why. I had to be strong each time I’ve seen my mother be rolled out of the house on a stretcher, oxygen mask covering her face, making it so that we can’t even kiss her good-bye before she goes away. Each time, the terrible thought rolls through my mind — is this the last time I’ll ever see her? I have to be strong; I’m the oldest of four. It’s so hard to look at your seven year old sister’s tear-streaked face, to hear her ask, in a voice tight with fear and sorrow, “Is mom going to be okay?” when you know that she means “Is mom going to live?” It’s hard to answer her, when you don’t really know, but don’t want her to worry more.Spoiler:Before you met me I was a fairy princess
I caught frogs and called them prince
And made myself a queen
Before you knew me I traveled 'round the world
I slept in castles and fell in love
Because I was taught to dream
I found mayonnaise bottles and poked holes on top
To capture tinkerbell
They were just fireflies to the untrained eye
But I could always tell
I believe in fairytales and dreamers dreams like bed sheet sails
And I believe in Peter Pan and miracles
And anything I can to get by
And fireflies...
