conditional affection

She only wanted a normal son

and I was in the way of that dream.

But as much as I hate and blame her,

there's this tiny part of me

that just

can't help but feel sorry for her.

Considering how on a pedestal Greenheart is to this day,

I can't imagine how Julie must've felt about me.

How do you even raise someone so extraordinary?

Mold the new icon of worship?

It's kind of incredible, how under all that pressure,

she still didn't decide to take the easy way out.

Maybe it was all her rage that kept her on her feet.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was.

But, well,

none of that made her a good mother.
