It was when a new guy asked why I didn’t think he’d be interested in me.
My first thought was to respond “because I’m nothing special”
But I realized something important.

I am special.

It was you. You flooded my mind with the tsunami of memories, countless nights spent together with you insisting I was perfect.
And yet I never believed you.
I never thought myself as anything special, anything great, anything worth loving. It wasn’t until it was too late, for I had already lost you.

I want to tell you thank you for giving me something I never had. Confidence.

I am special. I am loved. I am who I am.

Thank you.
