Thank you, my twenty.
For all you had done to me.
Twenty breakdowns and multiple relapses,
Toxic people and hurting words.
Such a great year that beat me up to pulp.
So,Thank you, my twenty.

Thank you, my twenty,
For pushing me off the cliff
And the fall was so long I wanted to give up
Because You taught me life is a tiring never-ending fall.
So, Thank you, my twenty.

And suck it up, my twenty.
Because I survived the fall.
I came out wounded, bruised and scared
That people could barely see but still hurt.
I came back weaker but wiser than before.
So, Thank you, my twenty.

Thank you, my twenty.
It was a colourful year, lots of red ,blue and grey.
But you presented me other colour too.
Yellow, green, pink and rainbow.
I learned to love them and that is because you showed me,
through red, grey and blue, how precious they are.
So, thank you, my twenty.

Thank you, my twenty,
You beat me up so bad
I actually screamed out for someone to save me.
And thank you my twenty,
You actually send them.
And they helped me to restore my faith.
And they saved me.
So, Thank you, my twenty.

Seriously, Thank you, my twenty.
You were such a roller coaster.
It is so weird that after saying
the same thing
on my birthday for so many year, but,
Twenty , after you, I learned
to have a different emotion when I say
'I survived another year of living' .
I say it with happiness now.
So, Thank you, my twenty.

So, Goodbye, my twenty.
You had been so bad to me.
And you had been so good to me.
You took away so many things from me.
I have nothing left
But the word 'hope' that I am yet to learn the meaning of it.
So, Thank you my twenty.

So, Goodbye my twenty.
Tomorrow I will laugh and smile even if I cry today.
Or even if I cry tomorrow, I will laugh and smile the day after.
Or even if I cry for another year, I will find the days that I am able laugh and smile anyway.
Because that is what you taught me.
So, Thank you and goodbye, my twenty.
I am happy I survived you.
