I can't take it anymore
It's hard to live in a place you hate, with people you can't stand, and not being able to be the person you want to be. It's harder to not be able to see the people you love. To be taken away from them and to hear the ones you hate slander their names. But to be taken from your family by another blood relative, that is a wound that can never heal. The pain just keeps getting worse, some days it's unbearable, but others you just go numb and don't know how to feel about anything. I can never tell which is worse though.
When I'm away from home, I mask the pain, bury it in the depths of my subconscious and pray it stays there until I'm alone. No one see's me broken, not because they don't care, but because I could never bare it if anyone ever did.
I think I'd be able to put up with all of this if I still had my best friend. Sure I still see her, but it's different. She's changed, and so have I. We're still friends, and always will be I'm sure, but we walk our separate roads. We never were alike. And I don't know how we became best friends in the first place, but even if we're to end up in different places, I'd always be there if she needed me, because you can't let a friendship like the one we had just fade away.

I love the honesty in this. I don't know if I'd be brave enough to be that honest -- not only with the audience, but with myself.
I want to say I relate, and I do, but at the same time I'm not claiming to know the burden your expressing.
Very well written -- simple, easy, and something I'll read again
ya personal experience that im still going thru and it really sucks
but writing about it helps i guess

"People take love like its a four letter word or just a phrase that you tell people or your friends all the time. But in reality love is much bigger than a merely phrase or 4 letter word. Instead love is a genuine promise or covenant to that special person."-Daniel Mathia
