Stepbrothers' Darling

by K.A. Knight

“Friends can break your heart too, sometimes deeper than even a lover, because you expect them to always be there and have your back, and when it ends... it’s like grieving a loved one.”

I’m not as alone as I thought. Sometimes I sink into that darkness when I don’t mean to, and everything becomes overwhelming, but a bit of time and perspective can help a lot. Not to mention having people to lean on.

Family isn’t always blood, but who you are willing to spill blood for.”

“But sometimes it’s not enough. Sometimes you can have everything in the world and still feel so empty and alone. I do sometimes. I shouldn’t but I do.”
