Mama

She wonders how my mind moves so fast and why I think so deeply about so many things. I am 8 topics past this question and have forgotten the 3 words before her last statement, but seem to notice that the pink ascot she wore last week matches a pink tie that my father received as a gift from some friends who visited Thailand 12 years, 2 months and 5 days ago. She denies the accusations I only partially make because half way through my grown up confrontation I lose the words to explain the thoughts and feelings I swear exist or swear into existence. She tells me who I am and I know she is right.
