People keep leaving.
And honestly? I’ve stopped being surprised. I don’t even get angry about it anymore. Just tired. Tired of watching connections fade, of trying to hold on to people who clearly don’t want to stay. It’s like no matter how good my intentions are, or how much I show up for others, they eventually just… drift away.
At some point, I stopped asking “why.” Stopped chasing explanations. Stopped waiting for closure. Because the truth is, most people won’t give you that. They’ll just go. Quietly. Like you were never anything at all.
So I’ve been learning how to let go. Not in some deep, spiritual, empowering way—just in a “this is life, and I don’t have the energy to keep hurting myself over it” kind of way. I let go because holding on started to hurt more than the loss itself.
Do I wish someone would stay? Of course. I'm human. I want to be chosen. I want to be fought for. But I’m not expecting it anymore. That expectation has disappointed me too many times.
