Dear All

To the girls who made me feel less myself because I wasn't like them 
To the boys who made me feel less of myself because I wasn't into them
To the people who cheered me on yet stood in my path so I couldn't move on
To the boy who stole my innocence and made me feel more as property and less as a human
To the people who pointed out my struggles even though I was hard enough on myself
To the people who said I should be more like the girl standing next to me
To the people who told me I wasn't pretty enough
To the people who pointed out the wrinkles formed on the crease of my eyes when I laughed 
To the people who told me I wasn't good enough because I wasn't what they wanted
Dear all of you, I've finally found myself , and I am enough...
To the people who said I needed " help " because I had a problem
To the people who told me that I was just " overreacting "
To the people who told me I need to slow down or stop talking 
To the people who told me everything was in my head
Dear all of you , a chemical imbalance isn't me " overreacting " ..
A mental disability isn't all in my head .. 
A mental disability isn't the end ..
To all of you that stood by my side no matter how hard it was 
To everyone who understood that it takes time
To everyone who helped me up when I was down
To everyone who didn't let me stop believing in myself 
To everyone who helped me see the good in all of the bad
To everyone who helped me see that it wasn't the end
To everyone who held my hand when I was hurting 
To everyone who loved me for me
Dear all of you , I've learned that life goes on...
I've learned people cheer you on just to tear you down..
But most of all I've learned to love myself..
Love doesn't hate..

Poignant balanced thoroughly engrossing work of deep introspection and reflection brings great rewards.

Impressive structure to this refined piece.

Wishing you all the best !  :)
