of my own expectations
that THIS PERSON will fulfill my needs
that A PERSON could fulfilll my needs
When we are all
just people
trying to survive
trying to figure it out for ourselves
And when someone hurts me
betrays me
mocks me
forgets me
ignores me
It’s not about me
It’s about them
finding their own way
figuring out their own mess
living their own truth
dealing with their own demons
I need to let it go
because their actions
their behaviors
are not a reflection of me
or of my worth
and I’m the only one
who can choose
to stop internalizing
to stop owning their mess
to stop
hurting so badly
