To my Ex
You we’re the sun in my world, so thank you for lighting the pathway.
Broke some of my bones, but thank you for the heartbreak I needed too.
Me, and you belonged together, so thank you for the time spent.
But, we didn’t belong together forever so thank you for being my past.
I still miss you, I think about you all the time, thank you for keeping my mind busy.
Survived, we survived so much, but thank you for showing me everything dies.
And to all the days we never said forever, it makes sense, thank you for never lying.
Learned how to despise my favorite place this summer, so thank you for all the memories there.
How I wish I could forget you, hate you, but thank you for reminding me I can’t.
To the days where I could just cry on your chest, thank you for holding me while you did.
Love, Thank you for saying you loved yet still letting me go.
Myself, Me, and I. Thank you for teaching me these were a part of my vocabulary.
Since we’ve been over I’ve been really lost, thank you for my new reality.
You were my everything, my love, thank you for showing me I couldn’t be loved.
Couldnt handle your words, the pain you caused, thank you for making me think life wasn’t worth living.
Im still here though, so thank you for making me learn I can handle the worst.
Okay you said everything you needed, thank you for getting it off your chest.
Now I still miss you, and I still have love for you, but thank you and goodbye.
(Read the first word of every sentence, here’s to the person I am today, for without this I would have never known who I truly could be)
