What’s Eating Gilbert Grape

What’s Eating Gilbert Grape (1993)
Directed by Lasse Hallström

Life in a small town
is simple. No fancy cars,
skyscrapers, or malls.
Time moves slower.
Familiar faces. Nothing
beats climbing water
towers, playing with
crickets, watching
camper vans.
Taking care of family
is what’s important.
It’s clear to see
my love for them
is deep. They need me
just as much as I need
them. Some days
are harder than others,
but I wouldn’t change
a thing. Why would I?
