A toxic relationship is like a rose bush.
At first it looks beautiful and the smell is inviting.
But when you get too close the thorns will prick you.
If you're foolish enough to hold on instead of walking away it will cause you pain.
The tighter you hold on to it the more painful it gets.
Eventually, the pain get to a point that you have to let go.
It will still hurt for a while after you let go, but that pain will eventually subside.
If you held on too tight, you're guarantee to end up scared.
After you walk away and the pain is gone, you'll realize that you're better off without the rose bush.
