I'd Do It All Again
It feels like I’ve never been alone before.
Obviously I have, but that was so many years ago.
I grew comfortable, you were a huge part of my life.
Although, you were the part of my life that held me back.
I never had any room to grow, I was trapped.
It got to the point where you were all I had,
You were my only source of happiness.
We never focused on ourselves,
We focused more on who were were together.
I always thought during the time I was learning about myself,
But, I was just becoming another version of you.
And it is so hard to talk about those years because:
You were those years.
You were every memory,
You were everything to me,
And that was the problem.
I just want to say I’m sorry, I never meant to hurt you.
I still look back at all the memories we’ve shared,
And trust me, my heart still aches.
But since then I’ve learned more about myself than ever.
I found an amazing group of friends who care about me,
I’m comfortable with my body and who I am as a person,
And I’m excelling in my classes for school like never before.
I finally found some self-happiness in my life.
And no matter how much I loved you,
I’d do it all again.
