I used to trust him

I used to look up to him

Look forward to bein around him

Until he tore apart that trust

Until he made me despise his actions

How he treated me

Like, I was some toy to him

Like he could get whatever the hell he wanted just by pouting

He'd get upset when I wanted to be alone

His words of hurt manipulated me into feeling bad for him and giving in

When in reality, he just wanted to be in control

He made me do things that I was uncomfortable with doing

He took advantage of me being a people pleaser

But it is mostly my fault

I should've stood up to him, I should've said no

But I was afraid that if I did say no, I would lose his love, so in the end, I lost myself by pleasing him, by doing whatever he wanted

But he'd always get mad at me in the end.

Even though I did nothing wrong

Even though I am my own person and don't deserve to be controlled

I never cheated, I never intentionally hurt him, I always went along with whatever he wanted, just because I didn't want to lose him

He was my first love, of course I was afraid.

That love that I had truly blinded me, making me always think that I was in the wrong, that I wasn't good enough

He tried to take me away from my friends, my family.

He always wanted me for himself

I felt suffocated, exhausted, afraid, and so utterly alone..

And finally, I was done, I let him go, knowing that it wasn't love anymore, it was toxic.

It was controlled, manipulative, and forced love.

He begged me to stay, but I couldn't take his emotional abuse anymore

I couldn't take him getting angry at me and making me cry every day.

I couldn't take his hurtful words slashing through my heart.

So I said goodbye, and it was done.

I finally felt free that day, it was life changing

But the worst part, was that my depression only got even worse after that

Just thinking about his controlling nature and how he treated me in the past made those dark thoughts hit me at full force.

And to this day, I still remember how he was, but I'm feeling so much better than when I was younger.

I feel free.
