Its the most freeing feeling, knowing I never needed you, that I can live my life how I choose. I can choose happiness, I can no longer put all my eggs in one basket, place all my time, money and resources, on you, for you will always be who you are, who you have always been. People dont change, not unless they want to, and I'm no longer accepting apologies as an excuse to wipe slates clean and start over, as I drag my past baggage with me everywhere I go. You will no longer be my hope for happiness, I will no longer be trying to convince others to let me in or allow me a place in their lives. No longer will I chase, I will accept the good with the bad, as dark days shift to the carefree, light, sunny. And though it may hurt, and the pain of the past still lingers, I know myself and my brain and my heart and my life, inside and out. I only have time now for the true and loyal, those with pure intentions, as to simply apologise and beg to forgive is no longer effective against the woman with her whole life ahead. I will no longer become the scapegoat to be bullied, I will no longer be the damsel waiting to be saved.
