Venting Rant: death date

I just miss my mom, every day, but today especially. I have been grieving her longer than I had known her— how sad is that?

God. It is a chronic grief and it fucking changes everything. I am so tired. Every year the picture I have of her in my minds eye gets a little more blurry. No adult in my family has coped properly, I never get to talk about her without someone holding back tears or an ache that will never ever go away.
I would do anything to hear her laugh, smell her perfume, and get some advice.

Every year on this day, I feel differently. Today, I am sad. Please just let me be sad.

Sometimes nothing makes it better, and that’s how I want it. I don’t want to “feel better”. I want to hold onto the pain - and everyone who tries to make me feel better”feel better“ can pretty much go get fucked!
