The Lights in the Hallway

My mam was divorcing my dad after discovering his other family in his home town back in mexico. My brother understood the circumstances when she told us that we had to move away, but growing up being blind to the signs, i was distraught and caught completely by surprise. I'd stay with my dad a few times over the week end, but when i'd see the state of the home with even more open space, it just felt lonely. In no time, with my mam supporting us in a separate home and no one to help my dad pay for the house, we lost it. Our happy family home had become the place of our family's end.
