An Unsent letter

I understand that we have been through things.

You were with me through thicks and thins
But there was trust and other things you were trying to win.
The using, abusing, where do I begin?

I know myself the best
And you tried to put that thought to rest
My patience and forgiveness you did test
Critiquing my hair, arms, the way I dressed

You made me think you cared
I couldn't leave you, I felt scared
Without other friends I wasn't prepared
And of course things were for my own good, you declared

How would you know?
You can't see anything I don't show
But most everything was out though
I trusted you to catch and keeps secrets that I did throw

That was a mistake
You've caused so much heartache
My confidence in myself to flake
My image of myself to break
Gave me thoughts I couldn't shake

I bought us a matching necklace, so we're never apart
I was so blind to the ways you were breaking my heart
The "helpful" comments on things like my art
You made me doubt that I was even smart

But I've realized, been surprised, won't any longer apologize, and have decided that you aren't for me.

Respectfully,
     That resource of yours

(A/N: Yeah so um, I tried something new and sorry for like, 1000% projecting but I felt like I needed to put my feelings somewhere. Peace)
