you were never okay
you always had your issues
you tried you best with me despite this
i loved you despite this
i wanted to be better
do better
live better
be happier
i saw you
i saw what you went through
it pained me that i couldn't do much
so, i was better
i did better
i lived a better life
i was happier
never for a moment did i do this only for me
it was also for you
for us
healing is painfully hard work
i wanted to be the person you cannot be,
in an attempt to help you heal
you did not fail with me
you did great
now i am great
thank you for doing all you did
despite everything.
