I'd fit in finally,
not just with alcohol
but in conversations
and I felt your concern,
I belonged better than I expected
Fateful day or not,
careless or not,
I lost it
Maybe your respect,
maybe your faith,
but mostly our relationship
He did the wrong,
not me,
and that's why I had to leave
and remain in the dark
Family, sometimes isn't family
moreso of just words that are meaningless
You proved that to me
and that's what hurts the most
So I have disappeared,
from where I once belonged
Author notes
Just as soon as I belong, then it's time I disappear. this poem is based on my lost connection with parts of family after an incident that changed my life.
