A Letter from My Former Self to the Person Who Hurt Me
The Most – A Poem
I used to be jealous of you, now I question why I wanted a
life that was not mine to take
I used to want to be just like you, so I changed my
appearance to be more like you and realized that it was not me
I used to feel the need to constantly seek your approval, I
was longing for your embrace and approval however it never came
I spoke my mind and I got banished for it
Conversations went back and forth constantly saying you
loved me when in actuality this statement was always a lie
It ate away for me for years however one day I woke up and
realized that you were not in control of my destiny
I control who I allow into my life so I decided to let you
go forever, It was hard a first however now it was the best decision I ever
made
I now could care less about what is occurring in your life
because it is a life that I would never choose and one that I would never want
myself
Am I bitter? Of course not because you taught me an
important lesson and allowed me to become the person I needed to be
Thank you for that lesson and although I am no longer
involved in your life, I wish you the best
LOVE! I think we all need to have a conversation with ourselves like this from time to time. Thank you for sharing. You've inspired me.
