Listen

I finally heard you

After months of talking and looking through glossy eyes

I didn't hear you for you

I heard you for me

I'm okay

I'm not hurt

I'm not angry

I'm not "in my feelings"

I just don't care anymore

I don't mean that in a numb heartless way but in a way where I put me first

I don't want my actions to be selfish anymore

I don't want to live the rest of my life with closed ears and an open mouth

I don't want my emotions to control me until they can no longer do so as I'm laying 6 ft under

I want to grow

Learn

Shine

Make a difference

Love unconditionally and openly

And most importantly never take anyone's shit ever again

It was never you 

It was always me
