I Remember

I remember meeting you and hoping you could save me.

I remember all the empty promises. 

I remember you telling me it is okay you feel the way you feel.

I remember you saying you wanted to help.

I remember you saying you would always be there.  

I remember how fast all of that changed. 

I remember you telling me that you didn\'t want to talk about that.

I remember you telling me I was overreacting.

I remember you saying you couldn\'t pretend that I was what you wanted anymore. 

I remember sitting on my kitchen floor crying. 

I remember feeling like my heart had been taken out of my chest.

i remember thinking this isn\'t your fault. 

I remember thinking I should have never expected you to save me. 

I remember learning a very hard lesson. 

I remember forgiving you, and being mad at myself. 

I remember thinking it would never get better. 

I remember when it did get better. 

I remember when I realized that no one will ever be able to save me. 

I remember learning how to pull myself out of that dark place. 

I remember when I was able to breathe again. 

I remember the night when I didn\'t shed tears over you anymore. 

I remember meeting someone new, and not expecting anything out of them. 

I remember being so afraid of ruining it that I did. 

I remember holding someone\'s hand and not being afraid of losing them. 

I remember moving on, and it has been the best feeling yet. 

I remember what it feels like to be happy with someone again. 

I remember thanking you in my head for all the empty promises. 

I remember being glad that you couldn\'t save me. 

I remember being glad that you left. 

I remember the lesson that I learned from all of this, and I will never be the same. 

I just want to say thank you for breaking my heart, because I know I wouldn\'t be where I am today without it.
