Simply put, I did what I needed to do in order to make my life better as well as the lives of the ones I love.
Let my be honest and completely clear; the past month I have been spiraling back into bad habits. Fear of relapse. I was afraid for myself and my own health. Sad because I dont know what I'm doing. Sad because I dont know where I'm headed. Sad because I miss home. Sad because I told my brother what I wanted to do fr a living and he discouraged me from it. Sad because no matter how hard I work and how good my grades are, i still feel like its never enough.
I also started to feel bad for Josh. His girlfriend cheating on him. Me being the other woman. It was too complicated and ... Josh is a good person.
So I did what I needed to do. I left her a letter. I said:
Of all the things I am, infinitely forgiving. Sticks and stones of words and fists, all of which can be forgiven.
Here I stand, weak and tiny, shrinking back to who I once was. Flashbacks to Thirteen, horrible memories of abuse and sex. Who I once was, who I long to become.
Words are my weapon. Words are my defense. Listen and you will understand. I am weak. I have no friends, alone, but still confident. I can be whatever I want. A friend to tell me that I am not good enough is no friend at all. I would rather die confidently alone than weak with you.
Of all the things I am, infinitely forgiving, like the tangerine sun and its undying warm citrus light. Forget the words, my weapon is my message. Pay close attention and you will understand.
I am strong and confident with endless potential, like the tangerine sun in the endless sky.
And you, a leech in a grimy pond, tearing away life, opportunity, dragging everyone around you down.
Beautiful, of all the things that I am, most admirable of all is that I am infinitely forgiving. Call me names and leave me bruises, I will always forgive you. Like erosion in the Grand Canyon, I have worn down, thin and weak. Forgiveness is a gift I can no longer give. Reckless, silly, stupid, and childish, hearts will get broken. I assure you, my heart will stay intact this time.
Words; my message is my weapon, and with them, I rid you of your power. I have, with my words, shot you. Dead.
Because I'm tired of the abuse. I'm so tired of being treated so poorly. I am an angel. I am a goddess. I am beautiful and amazing. I deserve the world and the endless sky. I'm tired of people telling my I am not good enough. All that matters is what I know. I am smart and hard working. Pretty and funny. And if I try hard enough, I will be able to accomplish anything I want.
