This goes out to all my lessons.
While I was with you I loved you.
Nothing in the world could stop me from knowing that you were the one, at that time of course.
Of course I’m the girl who loves hard but I never allowed that to stop me from continuing to love whomever was next.
You taught me how to be tough.
You taught me how to love without expecting anything in return.
You taught me what it means to smile.
You also taught me how to build a wall so big that even I couldn’t see over it to begin to love who I was again.
How can you tell someone you love them and treat them as if you didn’t?
How can you give so much of yourself to allow that person to see so much of who you are to become exposed to you and close them back off?
How can one love become the biggest lesson?
I never would have thought that we would be where we are but I thank you.
I thank you for teaching me that love is a sacrifice, one that you were not willing to take for me.
Thank you for allowing me to see why some of us go through so many different loves. It’s so that you find yourself in the end. It’s so that when it’s time for me to love to someone else I am able to be just that. I am able to love that person for who they are and not who I want them to become. Its so that I can show love for where they are whether it’s in the middle of their mess or at the highest of highs.
There will be no other way to be where I am if it was not for the love that you gave me.
The love may not have been perfect but it was what you had when I was there.
Thank you for being my biggest blessing.
