why do i always have to explain.. that my cantonese is 'siu siu.' 'mm sick gong,' that i can't speak 'that' (well). that long before my ancestors came to the new land, i was already forgetting a home and slipping through my small fingers was a language which i learned in translation. that i wish my ability to communicate was fed to me at birth - that i worked so hard to forget and to remember... why do i always have to explain that i cannot speak, but i understand.
why (do i always)
