The day you hurt me
Was the day I realised
Life wasn’t all flowers and sunshine.
It wasn’t only the day
I learned how to hurt,
But how to live with the hurt,
And I thank you for it.
For making me the strong woman
I am today.
For making me,
Me.
Because of you
I am able to tell my self
That I deserve more.

Life kicked me,
even when
I was already down.
It left me so many times,
alone,
thinking no one cared.
I had so much love to give,
but I wasn’t the most beautiful
for those who sought it.
They mocked me
for being strange,
when they were the ones who didn’t understand.
I trusted those who swore to stay,
yet behind my back, they laughed.
I lost myself,
becoming
what others wanted me to be.
I loved who I shouldn’t have,
trusted who I couldn’t,
fought battles that weren’t mine.
Tired of the shadows,
I became light.
Until I learned to play,
to laugh,
and to love.
What did I learn?
