sometimes it is too late.

     people like to say that it's never too late.

this is total bullshit.

sometimes it is too late.


     my mother was talking to day about my dad. they are no longer together and mine and my sister's relationship with him has been terrible since before they divorced.

     she says that sometimes he tells her that he regrets the way things happened. that he says he would leave the lady he's with to get back together with my mom.

     but it's too late to fix anything. he may be a good man now, but it's too late. the only thing that can benefit from his changing is his own life. our relationships are beyond repair. there is no going back. all we can do is gently lay our ruined childhoods down into a hole and cover them up with our earthen hands as we water the ground unintentionally with the hopes that have died long ago.

     sometimes, it is too late.
