I can never tell them.
I can never tell them,
that the day I leave-
I never want to look back.
That I wish I could start over
with only a few people.
I can never tell them,
That the reason
i want to leave so bad,
is because I don't want a family to take care of.
That even now I wish,
they'd just let me
take care of myself.
I can never tell them,
that at this point
I'd live better without them.
That even though they help me,
The pain they cause I don't want.
I can never tell them,
that the reason I'm counting down the days to 18-
Isn't just to wait
for my dream- job.
That I want to get away so badly
is the reason why i literally remind myself [daily]
there's not much time to go.
I can never tell them..
Because they are still my family.
Because they did take care of me,
when I couldn't.
I can never tell them..
Because I fear the reaction
and pain.
Because I still have time
to live with them.
I can never tell them..
Because there are some the family,
I could never give up.
Because there are events
I know I'll come back for.
And events
I don't want to be caged.
Which is why my name,
doesn't grace this page.
