the elephant in the room xx / Mummy There's an elephant in the room. It is large and squatting, so it is hard to get around it. Yet we squeeze by with "How are you?" and "I'm fine" ... And a thousand other forms of trivial chatter. We talk about the weather. We talk about work. We talk about everything else - except the elephant in the room.
There's an elephant in the room. We all know it is there. We are thinking about the elephant as we talk together. It is constantly on our minds. For, you see, it is a very big elephant. It has hurt us all. But we do not talk about the elephant in the room. Oh, please say his name. Oh, please say "Aaron" again.
Oh, please, let's talk about the elephant in the room. For if we talk about his death, Perhaps we can talk about his life. Can I say "Aaron" to you and not have you look away? For if I cannot, then you are leaving me Alone ... In a room ... With an elephant.

love you sweet heart xxxx
