Family Untied

I wrote a letter to family today

Told my mother she causes nothing but pain

Told being a scapegoat in a narcissist family was hard and in sane

I went on to say

I finally love myself and I have healed

That they can’t steal

My joy and they are not in control of Gods will

Nobody loves you till you’re gone

They find it hard to carry on

It’s only when you’ve gone away

They always want you to stay

I was an invisible child

My mother was chasing a dream

She was young and wild

Always treated me like I was in the way

Told me stories of how she tried so hard to get rid of me

Yet here I am alive and well

No longer willing to pay for the men who gave her hell

My siblings judge me for breaking free of all of the abuse and toxicity

They even stole my precious grand baby from me

No body love you till you’re gone

They find it hard to carry on

It’s only when you’ve gone away

That they always want you to stay

Yall forget I write songs and that’s it s my therapy

It’s of you can take of the mask

Your hate for me here for everyone to see

I’m looking forward to loving my tribe

They will raised on love

Not hate to survive
