For the first time in my life, my tears weren’t for her but for me. I had wasted years trying to dry her eyes, mend her pain. Trying desperately to be good enough so she’d see me for me. Now I knew that was never going to happen, not really. I had to let go and find my own way.

This was harder than I thought. I sat there with my legs over the ledge of the bridge watching the leaves go by with the current. I realized that there wasn’t much to this. I just need to let it go. I need to let go of Ms. Mittens. School has not let it go.
