Grateful

You've shown me the weakness in my armor

My  Achilles heel

I thought I was impervious

I forgot all I could feel


The pain you can cause

the confusion you create

The smoke screens you throw up

to seal peoples fate


But I am grateful to you

You showed I still have much to learn

You've become my greatest teach

My faith must remain strong


I am flawed and so are you

though you may not agree

By trying to see the best in you

You've gotten the best of me


But still, I am grateful

For I still refuse to change

Despite the hurt and anger

Despite all  the pain


I have not mastered self

Of this much, I now know

I have to learn forgiveness

I need to let it go
