It’s always family.

And they know not to.

But they do.

You smashed a window and no matter what you do it stays smashed.

this is sh territory and you'll never know it. or care.

Day is going okay then someone who does know better, should no better goes with an unprovoked one sentence which is an attack. They know, KNOW, it's wrong.

and my day stops.

I don't know how to describe it apart from being someone to then retreating inside me to be the smallest insignificant thing.
