THE LESSON.

Bad relationships are lessons learned.

For years I put up with the bullshit,

tempted to give up,

but you know,

I never did.

All of the girls,

but you said you loved me too,

and I was confused,

but I ain't even mad at you.

Mad at myself,

'cause you said you put me "first",

Not the ONLY ONE,

so I was bound to get hurt.

Over and over again,

but yet I stayed ..

Yet, I stayed,

hoping that something would change.

& Yeah, they changed,

but still I managed to get hurt.

Not all change is good,

'cause this one happened for worse.

Still I wanna thank you.

You made me who I am:

Confident and strong;

stronger than I've ever been!

I met you for a reason,

guess it wasn't a blessing,

but you will always be

my favorite lesson ..

I guess it could have been worse,

and if you wanna be strong,

sometimes you gotta get hurt.
