This is what I know...

I used to think I knew who my friends were. I used to think I knew who I could trust, and who not to. I used to think I knew when to give, and when to take. I knew nothing. In fact, I still don't know a damn thing. The three people I trust with my life may end up stabbing me in the back, just like the others. But I'm trusting them. Someone once told me love is giving someone the opportunity to destroy you, but trusting them not to. I'm still strong enough to trust them. You haven't destroyed me completely. Not yet. Not ever. I won't let you. I have plenty of aquaintances, but they have all let me down. Some I even call friends, but even those "friends" have hurt me. But the three that never have will forever hold a place in my heart. If they decide to walk out of my life, I will chase them. Because it's these three that have been there, on my side, through everything. It didn't matter if they knew I was wrong, it didn't matter who was on the opposing side. They were there. They listened to my endless ranting, and knew what to say. My secrets, my heart, my life is safe with them. I will forever be grateful for everything they do for me, and I will forever love them with the deepest of my emotions. I can't express how much they mean to me, and how lost I would be without them. I love you. I really do. Don't forget it. Ever.

Today: I know when to let go, now. Thank you for breaking my heart.
