Daily writing prompt
Write your guide to setting healthy boundaries in relationships.

i love me, but
you never loved you –
looking out for number
one is the first rule in the
book; my heart fumbles
everytime you continue
not taking your medicine;
refusing to comply – scaring
people and making me cry.

take your meds, i don’t care
if they’ve turned us into
med rats – attack the system
not yourself, stop pretending
everything is okay when you
actually need some help;
you turned on me like
Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde,
forced to leave your side
and now things are raw
salt in the wound, i can’t
even dive into the memories
it’s like trying to fly to the
Moon
