Let me start with this: I have forgiven you all.
I have learned my worth and I thank you for teaching me to love myself.
At first my heart held hate but there is no longer room for that deadly emotion. I hold prayers for you so one day you will recognize your blessings.
At first, I thought it was me. I hated how we turned out, I resented how you talked to others about me--some of you I barely knew a month and you made the conscious decision to spread endless lies.
I didn't know people could be so cruel, I was naive, and you preyed on that and took advantage; but no one is to blame, for what caused the downfall was my reactions.
When I found out the truth devastation overwhelmed me, a wave of blackness swiped over me--but because of this, I now see the light.
You picked apart my appearance--
I know I am beautiful.
You uttered trivial words that caused me feelings of agitation and anxiety,
but every time I see you I only want to help people more. The urgency I feel cannot be ignored.
I know who I am and what I stand for.
I have conquered negativity and I am a warrior of a vortex of battles.
I am healed--old wounds shut--I have a spirit of my own that is no longer under the influence of toxic implementations.
I have broken off from your chain with no means of re-attachment.
And let me say this: if you ever need help on your journey into self-discovery, I will be here. I will always be here.
Thank you for all you have done for me. Each and every one of you has unveiled a new pixel in my bigger picture. I am here and I have survived.
I thank you.
