Love Me For Who I Am
You know the quote from Maya Angelou? ".....people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."
Yeah. I'd never, ever, ever forget how you made me feel. People tell me to move on, but they don't understand that It's not about moving on. I can't move the blackhole in my heart, I don't want to. The gap that you created somehow taught me to be stronger, much to your disgust. I would keep holding on to this blackhole, this... darkness in my soul, I'd keep feeding the demon inside me because that's what I need to do to survive.
It's because of People like you that I'd never be pretty/ smart/ intellectual/ creative enough. I'd never be enough for you, and I was just so tired of trying to be what you want me to be that I just had to end it. You never tried to understood that I want you to love me for who I am, I want you to love me the way I am! I never wanted to be like Them. I'd never forget how you made me feel... Never.
I hope you found someone Eoungh someday.

Oh sweetheart! I want to stand up and applause you, you are absolutely right. You should never change to be accepted by anyone, you should always try to find the courage within to stand tall and be proud of who you are, flaws and all, because they are YOU! Don't waste your time explaining to people who you are, they way you are, how you conduct yourself, if they are committed to misunderstanding you, and remember, every inch of you is perfect.
You have discovered what you want and most importantly, what you don't want, and that sweetheart, is the most powerful position to be in. Excellent, well done, I'm very proud of you.
All the best lovely ❤☺
