Thankyou


To the love I never had

Thankyou for not being there when I needed you

Thankyou for pushing me away when all I needed was a a hug

Thankyou for rejecting me

Making me feel as if  I wasn't good enough

And you might ask why I am saying Thankyou

Because of your neglect I was able to love myself 

I was able to find myself, because you couldn't find me

I learned to turn to myself and not depend on others

You taught me to be okay with being alone

And now that you are hear for me I no longer need you

So thankyou
