I’m tired of always having to be the neutral one in my family. The one who has to have their life together. The one who always has to let everything slide. The one that has to follow imaginary rules put in place by others that no one but me has to follow. The one who gets overlooked and taken for granted. The one made to feel guilty when I put boundaries in place. The one that’s understanding and forgiving. The one who has to shoulder all the familial responsibility. The one who has to show up for others. The one who is everyone’s punching bag and above all else I’m tired of looking for excuses to stay when I can come up with more excuses to go.
