I Just Want To Thank You Poem by Thabitha Marakalala

I just wanna Thank you
To the man who lied to my face
He who made me hate myself for what took place
The one who make me feel like a fool
He who always acted to be cool
To the brother who tore me apart
With mere words he broke my heart
He who caused my heart to bleed
And my soul to bleat
I just wanna thank you

I thank you for awaking the beast in me
For bringing out the best in me
I thank you for making fall
So that I can stand up tall
I thank you for showing me my weakens
So I can acknowledge my strengths
I thank you for making me a hero
Walking over my fears
And smiling through my tears
Oh I so damn thank you

To the guy who told me lies
Even though the truth was written in his eyes
The same man who said I love you
Though he never meant it
He who said I give you my heart
When he really never had a heart
To the man who made me cry myself to sleep
While he was rolling in the deep
He who used my me
And undermined my love
I sincerely wanna thank you

Because of you
Am a Queen of my own castle
You taught me to stand on my own
You taught me hate in order to love again
You taught me to let go
Of that's hurting me
You taught me to never expect anything
Cause honestly expectations hurt
To he who made me feel like nothing
Thank you now am everything

To the boy who thinks his a man
Whose still far from maturity
Sleeping around won't get you an Oscar
Your lies will never make you a famous actor
To the brother I'll never bother
I just wanna deeply thank you
For making me a woman that a man needs
Not the woman who needs a man
