Beautifully written and deeply moving. You’ve articulated the profound, cellular impact of early separation so clearly here. That "sheer scrim" perfectly captures the delicate balance between the persistent ghost of the past and the reality of "waking to now." Also your line, :With no one person to see in the mirror — no likeness", perfectly captures the unique existential grief of adoption that is so rarely understood by outsiders....I was moved by this piece. Thank you for sharing such an evocative piece.
