When I became the thing he feared most he ran away. Every now & then he’d see a glimpse. A woman with values, morals, & self respect. A woman who now knows her value & worth & will never forget. A woman who will always want commitment & love instead of lust based transactions. A woman with higher standards but God is she a loving woman.

I was no longer the girl who said nothing back, who always came back “in the name of love” who took the disrespect repeatedly until I continuously erupted like a volcano. Now I am no longer the scared timid girl. I’m the woman who will disrespect you if you disrespect me, but now more politely. I’m the woman tired of being in pain, unhappy, unheard & not feeling alive.

Finding happiness is quite literally finding yourself & I never truly did. What makes you tick? What keeps you going? I couldn’t answer those things for a long time, trying to pretend. Losing who I once was. Thinking there was something wrong with me. There is nothing wrong with me. Now I have a small list of people, places and things that make me happy. Dreams that keep me going choices to make to take me where I ultimately want to be. I know what I want & I always did. Now I’ve learned the ultimate secret.
The one who broke you will never be the one to heal you. You Have To Heal You. You can’t expect the one who broke you into pieces to bring those pieces and say “I’m gonna put you back together” you can’t do that. You can, but why would you choose to? Why?
