Dear Past Hurts,
Most people-
In writing something like this-
Would start with words like
"Fuck off" or
"I wish you didn't exist".
But as for me?
As for me- I'll begin with something simplier.
I'd like to say
Thank you.
Thank you for hurting me.
For breaking me.
And I know that's odd.
That I must sound crazy.
But hear me out.
You hurt me,
Yes.
You hurt me in more ways than one.
And at the time
I didn't understand.
I'm still trying to figure somethings out.
But without you
I wouldn't be where I am.
I wouldn't have my music.
I wouldn't have my friends.
I wouldn't have love.
You've left scars
That'll never fade.
Those scars
Now serve as reminders.
I'm stronger than I was before you.
You've changed me.
In good ways and bad.
Thank you
Past Hurts,
For what you've done.
Without you
I'd be very different.
So thank you
For shaping me,
For hurting me,
For breaking me.
Without you
I might've had happiness,
But because of you-
I've found love.
I've found happiness,
Even when it hurts.
And I've found strength.

PoetryMy thoughts tend to form like poems, so I figured I'd share them- part of me hoping they make sense to more than just myself.
