Can I let them go?

I struggle to keep them in my life.

They mean well

and their actions stem from a place of love.

Yet every time I see them

a confrontation is sure to follow.

Boundaries need to be set

and maintained

or surely I will lose my mind

and find myself

once again walking away because

I have tried everything I could

to have a better relationship

but ultimately

to no avail.

So can I say good-bye?

Maybe.

Not yet.

Maybe someday.
