To the ones who broke my heart —
Let's not pretend you don't know who you are.
You saw the light in me and chose to dim it.
You saw my kindness as weakness and took advantage.
You didn't just break my heart —
You shattered it, stepped over it, and acted like I didn't matter.
Middle school… wow, what an experience. It honestly felt like living in a strange, in-between world. One moment, you're laughing with your friends, and the next, someone's acting like you don't even exist. It was confusing, overwhelming, and filled with lessons I didn't even realize I was learning until much later.
Sharing how I protect my mental space even when school becomes overwhelming.
