Dear mom

Dear mom,

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I yelled at you when you asked me to do the dishes. I'm sorry I wasn't there when dad was sick, when you needed someone. I'm sorry I left town when you needed me. I'm sorry I couldn't be there for you when dad passed. I'm sorry for all of it.

I'm sorry it took you being put in the hospital for me to come home.

I'm sorry you had to be there when Tirek attacked. I'm sorry you had to be put on life support, and I'm sorry that Discord turned the ventilator into a popcorn machine.

I'm sorry that I watched you choke to death, and I couldn't stop it.

Beyond all of that, I am sorry that the people who allowed this to happen to you are still alive.

Mom, if you are listening, I am so, so sorry.

-Cherry Berry
