How to save a life
Tears filled my large hazel eyes, wetting my freckled cheeks and streamed down my face, pooling on to my tshirt that was covered in food from the baby’s dinner. I wept quietly while my three children slept soundly in their beds. My breathing was heavy and hard, I worked tirelessly to control the sound of my crying to ensure that I didn’t wake anyone, I couldn’t handle crying children right now and I definitely didn’t want them to see me like this. I glanced over to the pile of bills, stacked as high as an old phone book. Red and white, overdue, overdue, overdue. That’s all I could see. How did I get myself in this mess? How did I let my children down so badly? It was meant to get easier once I left my abusive controlling relationship.
