If one day, you change your mind and return to my side. Remember this. Remember all of the times you broke me. The times you shattered me, and left me on the floor. When you realize what you’ve lost, know what I have gained. I have gained perspective. I have gained independence. But, remember what you took. You took my optimism. You took my faith in humanity. You took a piece of my soul. Do not return it to me. If you leave me, don’t return. SD 3/9/18
