Your opinion used to matter
But…
He made me whole
I don’t hurt anymore
He mended me
He believed in me
He held me together when I doubted my ability to succeed
No need to excuse my choices
I am stronger
My heart knows love
My head sorts truth from crap
Don’t mock me
Don’t judge me
Don’t blame me
You don’t know me well enough to hold an opinion
I owe you nothing
I can be whoever I want to be without question
I know this now
Authentic and true
Always sure
Always real
Always…
Me
