Sometimes I wish I would have stood up for myself sooner.
Sometimes I wish I wouldn't have let the hurt break me.
Sometimes I wish I wouldn't have stayed silent.
Sometimes I wish I wouldn't have let your words take up so much space in my head that I forgot what my own voice sounds like.
So understand when I say
I don't hate you i just started loving myself.
I didn't destroy you I just finally saw myself as something worth fighting for.
Finding your worth can look a lot like destruction to the wrong person when their control over you is gone find it anyway.

My To Be Read List
I have been taking some time away from writing. I haven't forgotten about Vocal, the truth is I just have been too busy pursuing other things to write online and honestly, my little family and I just had a really hard month between the flu and a weird eye infection/cold circulating our house. I'm currently sipping some warm peppermint tea because my throat is sore.
