Dear anonymousA Poem by Billie AtterberryI use to idealize you I use to want to be just like you There were times you made me cry And there were times I wanted to die
And although I may miss you when you’re gone I must say I’m finally moving on Moving on from the I hate you’d And wishing I was never born Moving on from the hits I took And the heart that you had torn
I can't stay angry forever Or let my life just pass me by I can't be afraid anymore To try and enjoy my life
You took so much from me So much more then you will ever know But I must find a way to move past this If I am ever going to grow
But before I can finally move on I need to say a few things to you And even though you say you dint remember I know you know that this is all true
So here goes......
You took all the times I could of had When you kept me from my dad You took my spirit and dam near tore it down Until I learned how to pick myself up from the ground
You took my faith and shattered it When it came to happiness Taught me how to sabotage love And never really accept it
You took the childhood I should have had When you would raise your fist to me You took dam near everything Away from me.....
I have pushed so many people away Because I never knew what was real And every time they got to close I was to afraid to feel
But it may have took all these years To realize my biggest weakness And even though i still shed tears I can no longer live like this
I can't keep the pain to myself And sugar coat the truth Its time I tried to live a happy life And let go of the bad memories of you
So goodbye, to all the hurt, as I try to let go of this anger I’m so ready to move on I am more than eager I refuse to let you still hold me back I refuse to let my future repeat my past
I’m moving on, and I am forgiving, I am letting go, and
choosing to accept the truth That just because my past was painful, I will still forever
love and miss the real you......
The you, you rarely showed
