Thank you

Never thought I'd say this,

But thank you for the pain.

Thank you for all the tears,

That fell down my face like rain.

Thank you for the names,

All the insults,

The dirt on my name.

Thank you for the scars.

Thank you for everything.

If it wasn't for you,

Where would I be?

Probably not here,

Writing a masterpiece.

I probably wouldn't be as strong as I am.

Ivincible,

Because the only way they can destroy me is if I let them in.

And after trusting you and being hurt,

I don't let anyone else in.

Not because I'm afraid,

But because I am experienced.

Never thought I'd say this,

But thank you for the pain.

Thank you for the memories.

The nightmares.

The sleepless nights.

The screams in my head,

Telling me I have to fight.

When I was drowning,

Oxygen leaving,

Got me wishing for death.

Fight, I was told.

But you can only fight so long.

So, again, thank you.
