My Life

Time spent away, To make a better life. Excited to come home, Only to leave again in tears. Family in disarray, I need to get away. Why do the ones I love, Constantly throw me away. “Be the bigger person.” “Forgive and forget.” That’s always what they say. You’re the one that hurt me, Please don’t tell me what to say. Every time this happens I must be the one, To take the high road and apologize for all that’s wrong. Someday they’ll miss me and want me near, Unfortunately, that day isn’t here.
