Secrets
Through Silence the Lies Are Woven
Dear Mom, I figured it was time for me to tell you something, a secret I have been hiding for over 20 years. I have known since I was 21 that Robert is not my father. I had always suspected it growing up. I look nothing like Dad, and I never had any of the same allergies that you both had.

Mom, I must confess...
Hey mom, I have something that I need to tell you. I know that I was not known as being a good kid when I was younger, however you and everyone who knew me as a kid knows that I did a complete 180. However, before I can fully leave the past alone I must confess something…

Oh Mother…
Dear Mom, I know what I’m about to tell you will break your heart. It breaks my heart that I’ve kept this. I’ve been so afraid to tell you. That no matter what you will always love me. But this is so awful. I don’t know if you could ever love me again.

Unexpected Villain of the Piece. Top Story - May 2022.
When I was younger, I always felt I would be the good guy, the hero in my life story. I think most people do? No one really wakes up one day and thinks “I am going to be the villain”. Even Mega Mind decided to be bad because he tried so hard to fit in and then felt everyone was against him because he was a blue kid with a big head and who seemed to be quite clumsy.

My First Kiss
Hey Mom. I never told you this before, but… In seventh grade I kissed a girl. As you drove me to the house of my best friend, I’m sure you had no idea about the thoughts racing through my mind. Anxiousness, excitement, and a wonder for why she would ever want to kiss me. Me, a 13-year-old going through her awkward phase, was about to kiss the girl everyone wanted. A girl who was perfect in every way, while I was not at all.

The Things I Never Told You
To my dearest mother, Here is a short list of confession that I know you will never read. But I think it will be good for me to get them out of my head and onto paper form. Or at least in a manner of speaking. I'll admit this is not for the light hearted.

A letter before I leave
Dear Mother, It seems strange writing to you when I know that you are downstairs but I wanted to talk to you just one last time before I leave and we all know how that goes. I try to say something, to try, as I always have done to get through to you and you just don't care: you're dismissive or more likely cruel and mocking. Whatever. I'm not sure what you're thinking and as you never share, I can't see it being any different. Who am I kidding? I know it's not going to be any different.

Three and a Half Secrets. First Place in Mother's Day Confessions Challenge.
Dear Mom, I spent a long time planning how I would come out to you. I would leave a letter on your pillow. I would write an entire novel with a lesbian main character and print it out and ask you to read it. I wouldn't come out at all, but I'd bring a girl home for dinner and say, "This is my girlfriend."

Mom, I wish you knew
Mom, I think you should know. I have been dying to tell you but I don’t know how that I was pregnant and then I was not. It started a few years ago like old stories go. a girl and a guy fell in love with eachother that’s how it went, they kissed and they kissed and I’m sure you know what happens next. The chemistry between us was such on fire, he loved me and for sure he was the one. ( I still think this but I’m married with kids now.) you never met him or even knew he existed. He’s been a secret that nobody knows, and I’ll keep it that way because I’m sure I’d never tell you all this anyways. When I was with him life seemed so much better. He was the bad boy and I was the good girl that he some how wanted. We had met through mutual friends and he attended a concert with me as a blind date. He was the drummer of a band and his world was so cool. Everything that night was such a bliss, we enjoyed the music and even danced a little he was a gentleman the whole night. We got back into town and went our seperate ways. Until I text him and asked him to come back, to stay with me until I fell asleep to which he agreed. The next morning as the sun came up he kissed me and left and I was hooked. He didn’t say much to me about his life or about him. Only that he didn’t date or do the girlfriend and boyfriend scene. His life was his music and that was pretty much it. I could never compete with his drum set I would have always came second place. That was always okay with me. I showed him a world that was different each time we hung out, something that he would say was a “normal” life. The typical 8-5 life that he was so unaccustomed to, he lived a night life scene. The one where he would disappear on me weekends as if he didn’t exist. But then return Monday morning but during those times he was unreachable and unseeable. As our days of our first meet seemed a distant past the more we spent with eachother the more it seemed like he was getting used to having me in his life. Of course he only included me in things he wanted, he believed it was his way of keeping me safe. I was hooked to him like a drug, everytime I saw him I wanted more of him. I never saw a side of him that he didn’t want me to see. So than it began, the butterfly feeling. The knots in my stomach we’re getting stronger. I felt sick, I felt a utterly different feeling. I knew, I was pregnant. I took the test just to make sure and behold the two little lines darker than anything I had seen before. It was the greatest news that could be, we were expecting; “how great a family of three.” i remember clearly mom, you guys were scheduling a family weekend camping trip, I had to stay behind because my work schedule didn’t allow for me to go. It was the perfect time to figure out my next move. As soon as you guys packed and left for the trip, I text him and called him and told him we had to meet. He knew in my voice something was wrong and he didn’t understand it. I told him with joy, “I am pregnant.” Till this day I remember his stone cold look, with a pause in his voice and then his reaction. Slowly he said, “ I don’t want it, get rid of it.”
