Dear "Dad",
I'm not bitter anymore, I'm just sorry. I am sorry that you didn't want to be a part of my successes and would rather be my biggest failure. I am sorry that you chose a life without me in it. I'm sorry that I have accomplished so much in the past year and you haven't heard anything about it. I'm sorry that you have no right to be proud of me. I'm sorry that you will never be part of my life again. I am sorry I let you hurt me so badly. I am sorry that I put so much trust and effort into building a relationship that you just didn't want. I am sorry I had faith in you. Most of all, I'm sorry I wasn't good enough for you.
I look back on all the times we never shared together and I don't get sad anymore. Rather, I get a since of pride in myself. I know how strong I have become because of your lack of existence. I know that there are people in my life who took your spot and excelled in raising me.
Dear Dad

No More Ed
Ed. He was always with me. Ed was like my boyfriend. He lived in my head rent free but he constantly controlled me. He almost took over my life. He distorted my self image. Ed judged me, told me what to do all the time.

Heart Of Gold
You know I have a lot of things I hate about myself, but I think the one thing I love the most is how I always seem to be there for someone. Always there even if I'm hiring and can barely stand on my own two feet. -
Poison
People say that poison is something you drink, it's a liquid that consumes your insides and can damage you from the inside out. But what if my poison is a person? What if my poison is someone who continues to destroy me?
