A Letter to Both

You gave me PTSD,

You took away my innocence,

So I could hate you for the rest of my life.

But I forgive you,

Not because what you did was okay,

But because I need to able to live my own goddamn life,

Without you ruining it any longer.

Because I want to be free from your reign over me.

I want to be able to trust again,

I want to be able to be with someone else again,

And the only way I can move on,

Is if I accept what you have put me through

And live my life to the fullest regardless of my past.

 

I can actually thank you for one thing though.

Thank you for teaching me that I deserve better,

Thank you for making me realize that if someone is truly worthy of my time and effort,

They sure as hell better love me for me and not my body.
