Saturn Nausea


People will continue to silently call me selfish

But I will continue to be silently selfless

Dear Mom

You don’t love me

And I know you don’t

Dear Dad

I know you wish I would leave

I hear your conversations

Dear Sister

You have made my life hell

And yet you expect to forgive you

Dear Brother

You haven’t been mean to me ever

And if you have I forgive you

Dear Cousin

I love you

I know I say it all the time but I do

I'm sorry for pissing you off all those times

I didn’t mean too I promise

Dear Aunt & Uncle 

You made your home my home

I would much rather live there than where I live now

In conclusion

I love some of you

But for the rest, may your love for me be reciprocated
