It’s hard to hate yourself

when your mind is busy

hating someone else

so I thank you

for saving me that pain

Just wish you could’ve helped

in a way that lasted

or actually meant something

and didn’t leave me just as broken

as when you stepped in to fix me

No thanks to you

I’m still standing here

Spite is a powerful tool

and disgust a mighty glue

helping hold me together

long enough to make you regret

throwing away what you claimed to value
