he used to be my entire world but today, i would choose myself over him He used to be my entire world-the person I built my days around, the one I turned to for comfort, joy, and meaning. Loving him felt like home, like everything finally made sense. I gave so much of myself to that love, sometimes more than I even realized at the time. And even now, I can't deny how deeply it mattered to me, how real it all felt, and how much of my heart still remembers what we once had. But today, I choose myself. I choose my peace, my growth, and the quiet strength I've found in standing on my own. It's not that what we had meant any lessit's that I've learned I deserve to be my own safe place too. Walking away wasn't easy, but staying would have meant losing parts of me l've fought hard to reclaim. So now, with both love and courage in my heart, I let the past be what it was, and I finally put myself first.
