Family is who we look to when we need help. We expect our parents to raise us, our grandparents to love us, and our brothers and sisters to always be there for us when the chips are down. They are our blood and we depend on that connection. When a family member doesn't live up to our expectations we feel abandoned. When a parent, grandparent or older brother or sister puts their needs in front of our own, we feel abandoned and alone. In such a case, we are likely to feel sad, alone and angry.

Broken promises and sad goodbyes you left me standing all alone with tears in the well of my eyes.

Everyday I dream of how perfect my life would be if you were here....

Wondering, what did I do?
