invisible

I was so young when my parents died that I didn't understand what really happened. People didn't like to talk about them with me so I made up my own stories. My dad helped me win the 3rd grade science fair, my mom helped pick out my prom dress, and later this year they will both be at my wedding.

MY BIGGEST FEAR ISN'T THAT SOMEONE WILL FIND OUT ABOUT MY "INVISIBLE" FAMILY BUT THAT ONE DAY I WILL WAKE UP AND THEY WON'T BE THERE ANYMORE.
