Thank you. Thank you for breaking my heart. Thank you for leaving me alone and scared. Thank you for letting me down. Thank you for breaking me. Thank you for giving me the best gift in the world, our son . Thank you for showing me who you were .
We're okay. It has been almost a week now since you left us abruptly. I truly didn't see it coming. We left and you acted as if this is normal and that I was nothing to you. I'm the mother of your son and was your girlfriend and "love of your life". Now I'm nothing to you. But that's okay. Every night I look at our son and smile. Even when tears are running down my face and I'm wondering how and why you did this, it doesn't matter. I got him through this. Through the worst pain in my life came the best thing in my life.
I feel at ease. At ease knowing all those times I questioned your love, loyalty, and commitment to me, that I was right all along. Those nights I questioned how you felt about me and you made me seem crazy for thinking that, I was right.
Thank you for finally being honest with yourself and me. It hurts me to know I been believing you for so long but it gives me a sense of relief knowing your gone. I don't have to question my worth or my love to you anymore. I don't have to sit and wonder. I now know. You put on a good act but deep down I knew you weren't true to who you were.
I feel bad for you. I feel bad you lied. I feel bad you faked it. I feel bad you didn't see my worth. I feel bad you didn't see my love and commitment. I feel bad you didn't see a life and a family that we already started. I feel bad you can't see your son everyday. I feel bad you can't see him wake up and go to sleep. I feel bad we don't sing him songs anymore. I feel bad we can't be there for him together. I feel bad. I feel bad for the person you are and the person you pretend to be. Most of all I feel bad you didn't think we were worth it.
But thank you. Thank you for making me realize I am worth it and that I was right all along. I sit here and wonder how any human can walk away from us. From a newborn baby. From a woman who gave you her heart and life. He is starting to smile more and I know it's because he knows I'm at peace. At peace with knowing I am not with someone who doesn't want us. Who doesn't need us.
Being alone with a newborn is difficult at times but yet it's the best feeling in the world. I feel bad your missing out on your son, on me. But thank you for letting me be the mother I knew I could be. Being heartbroken and a mom is the hardest thing I ever had to do. But I did it. I'm doing it. And I'm not going to stop. We are sorry we weren't enough and are sorry you had to fake it. But we thank you. Thank you for our beautiful life.
