The Power of Letting Go

To the one who threw me away,
I have a message for you today.
Thank you for leaving me behind,
For in the end, I learned to shine.

Your silence was painful, I won't lie,
But it helped me learn to say goodbye.
I shed the weight of your deceit,
And found the strength to find my feet.

Through the pain, self-love grew,
As I let go of your toxic view.
I learned to stand on my own,
And found a power I'd never known.

Thank you for walking away,
I am stronger for it today.
I'll take the lessons and the growth,
And continue to love and nurture both.

The power of self-love and care,
And the beauty of letting go
I'll move forward with my life,
And leave behind all the strife.
