I Would Never Abandon Myself

As a child I would never have abandoned my family, my friends, or my dolls. As a pre-teen the dolls were put away with reluctance, because I never wanted them to feel abandoned. As a teenager I realized I had to abandon some friends, in order to save myself. It was not easy, but it was either them or me, and people become sad when they abandon themselves. As a woman in love, and a young mother, I decided to abandon all things that did not aid in my goals. I abandoned people, places, and things right and left, in order to be the happiest me I could be. I am an expert at abandoning things now. I abandon everything and everyone who takes away from me. Because I never want to abandon myself.
