Illueia

My mouth droped open as I listened.
The woman had told me something I never expected. If i had expected it I would never have wanted to hear it.
I don't want to hear it.
Who was I really?
Did it have anything to do with that bird?
Those dreams?
My eyes?
Only one person could answer my questions,
But that meant leaving my home and going with them. Maybe never to return.
Never to see Mum and Da again.
I couldn't do that. Never.
But there were so many questions filling my head one after another.
