You helped me realize who I was.
The heartbreak helped me see who you really were.
The pain opened my eyes to a whole new world.
The suffering rid me of the happiness I had before.
What you did to me left me free of love and joy.
You destroyed my ability to feel any emotion.
You ruined my life.
But smehow I still love you.
