When You Cant Say It Outloud

Thanks

I detest monsters like you that think that for some reason they have the right to tell others that they will amount to nothing.

I detest monsters like you that for some inane reason think that you can tell anyone who does something that is outside of your narrow-minded definition of 'normal' that what they are doing is only part of a phase.

I detest monsters like you that think that everyone else is worthless, and that you as a whole entity are the only person that will ever amount to anything, even as you know that usually the only that human usually leave behind are scars(if they leave anything behind at all).

This letter is not a letter of complaint, but it is a letter of dismay and thankfulness. Thank you for showing me and others alike me that there is someone morally below us. Thank you for, out of your hatred and utter distaste of any way of life other than yours, making us angry enough to build up our tenacity to keep doing just as we were before the monster opened his mouth. Thank you for showing me that I am not weird, crazy or broken. Even though you may have twisted my mind for some time into thinking that I was exactly these things, I thank you not so faceless entity at the back of my mind, thank you monster that stalked me through the hallways at school just wait for the moment to attack, thank you all of the friends that have left me sitting in a pile of dust on the roadside, and thank you nameless family member that knows just what to say to find the chinks in my armor.

Thank you for teaching me that I shouldn't let someone- nay something define my perspective on myself. I thank you all of the other monsters of the past, the present, and the future. Thank you for daunting me for so long.

The (Un)daunted.
