To everyone who ever hurt me

To Everyone Who Ever Hurt Me

This is for everyone who ever hurt me, read this message carefully.

At first, the pain was torture, it felt like it would never end 

12 years of therapy was the only thing that taught me to cope with my feelings within

I have no resentment for you, I'm letting bygones be bygones

I just wish I knew why you put a little girl through so much grief

I deserved so much more, a happy childhood

Not to say I don't have happy memories with you

It’s the only thing I focus on now actually

The joy and not the heartbreak

I want you to know I love you still

The hatred has faded, I just wish you stayed

I could see the love in your heart before everything collapsed

You did the best you could given the circumstances and although it wasn’t enough for that I thank you

I thank you because you shaped who I am today, and oh isn't it amazing who I've become

If only you could see me now…..

With love,
