You’re strong for leaving him, even if you’ve cried every night since you’ve left him.
Youre strong for leaving him, even if you didnt stand up to him at the end.
Youre strong for leaving him, even if youve cried every night since youve left him.

Helen Geelen
Youre strong for leaving him, even though you feel like you should have done things a lot differently.
You have to stop shaking your head when people call you strong.
You have to stop assuming youre weak.

You might feel like you could have handled the situation better.
You might wish you walked away sooner or put him in his place earlier.
You might not be proud of yourself for the way you said goodbye but youshouldbe proud of yourself.
You got yourself out of a messy situation.
You decided you werent going to give him control over you anymore.
You decided you were done with his sad attempts at love.
Youre free from him now.
It might have taken you a few attempts to leave.
You might have fallen for his apologies more times than you would like to admit.
But its better late than never.
You should be proud of yourself for following through, for finally saying goodbye.
Youre strong for leaving him, even if youve been having trouble getting out of bed lately.
You have to stop reliving the past.
You cant change when you left or how you left or the things you said as you left.
You have to keep your eyes on the path ahead of you.
You have to move forward with the knowledge you are a strong woman.
