The Rocking Chair

This piece is about how as a child I learned to numb my pain away, to run, from my feelings and the way my Mother’s alcohol addiction affected me. This is a very sensitive issue for me. My Mother rocked my pain away (literally in a rocking chair) until I was about 12 years old. We have always been extremely close and I still have major dependency issues but we are both working on freeing ourselves from any kind of unhealthy relationship, as well as our own addictions.
