Thank You For Breaking My Heart

Thank you. Thank you for teaching me the difference between right and wrong. Thank you for showing me what it feels like to be tossed aside. Thank you for teaching me cruelty. For teaching me heartbreak. Thank you for yelling at me. Thank you for your mean words. Thank you for forcing me to become strong. Thank you for showing me what I don’t deserve. Thank you for all those nights you made me cry. For all the mistakes I made as I tried to love you. For the lessons I learned from them. Thank you for showing me that forgiveness isn’t always the solution. Thank you for making fun of how much I cared. Thank you for not respecting me. For never appreciating anything I did. Thanks to you I now know when I should walk out of a relationship.

Thanks to you I know what it’s like to feel betrayed.

Thank you for showing me what I don’t want. Thank you for being selfish. Thank you for making me understand what I deserve. Thank you for not caring. For leaving me behind. For letting me have a fresh start. Thank you for not being a part of it. Thank you for all the terrible things you’ve said. For all the times I felt degraded and used. Thank you for making me feel what it’s like to hit rock bottom. Thank you for making me re-build. Thank you for all the destruction and the hurt. Thank you for making me the woman that I am today. Thanks to you I’m stronger. Thanks to you I’m wiser. And thanks to you, I’ll never fall for you again. Thought Catalog Logo Mark
