thank you for being an asshole

We started out as something .

You made me feel important.

But then you didn't.

You made me feel like a failure.

You made me feel unimportant.

You made me feel stupid.

Until we were nothing.

You left me after you made your way through my life like a storm.

You left me lonely.

you left me broken.

Most of all you left me angry.

So here I am now a year later stronger than ever. 

I am confident.

I am smart.

I am inportant.

So thank you for being an asshole.

Thank you for filling me with anger.

because unlike you I used my anger to change me for the better.
