shame

Everyone who's ever loved me has been ashamed of the fact.

There were those who should have been, church youth choir directors, bored adoptee babysitters, others whose faces are gone to me, but the smells, and fears linger on.

And there are those who shouldn't have. My mother, my father, the people I love now, and others I won't name because they would still be embarassed to be associated with my name.
