#theme: codependency?

[likeaahostage]

i wish that i didn't feel so helpless without someone by my side,

i know it's in my head.

i know i'm not really a ship stranded in the middle of nowhere,

but it feels like it sometimes.

this level of codependency is tearing me apart,

but nothing i do seems to get me out of the cycle.

i know that if i want to travel,

and study away from my family,

and live outside of my hometown,

i have to learn to be better at being alone.

but i truly don't know how.
