“a smile doused in pity”
Broken I have this lamp. It’s an elephant. I love elephants. I love d this lamp. It’s broken now, but f before today it wasn’t. My parens bought it for me as a hoeswarming gift the first year we moved into our house the very first house that we bought over twenty years ago. That’s how long I have had the lamp. I knew it was broken before I even walked in the room. I heard a crash and I instantly knew what it was. Yous see the lamp gets moved. I keep it tucked between too bookshelves that line my living room wall so it can’t get broken and my Mom who lives with me moves it. She says she moves it for more light but there is a light in the living room so I am not sure if that makes any sense to me. All I know is she moved it and it got nocked over and its borken now, And my therapist says we react to things how we are not how they are and whoever we were and ot how we are or something like that but to me this feels a lot like generational trama. And i would settle for a smile doused in pity but all i have is a broken lamp.
