I can&#8217;t see them. I can&#8217;t ask them things. Can&#8217;t ask what drove them to separate. So many questions unanswered. \u00a0It tires me not being able to shed grief that&#8217;s hidden deeply inside. I don&#8217;t want to hold it any longer. \u00a0I should consider seeing the private counsellor I saw a few years ago. \u00a0I&#8217;ll think about it.
