Goodbye

I don’t like
Who I am
When I’m with you

I tried

You still refuse
To see me

You don’t deserve
The best
Version of me

And I deserve
The family
I’ve found
Elsewhere

The last family gathering before my mother passes  is this weekend. I’m going home after everyone wakes up. It will be the last time I speak with anyone. I’m not angry. I’m choosing to be happy. I cut my toxic family out of my life and then forgave them. I came to this beach house in an effort to mend relationships. They’re not my people. Toxicity has zero place in my life.
