I read a poem today that said it is hard to look at someone when you know you destroyed them,
that this is why people disappear,
and I cannot put it any more clearly
you did not destroy me
no matter how much I may have thought you did once,
you never held that kind of power.

A perfect reclaiming of power! It's about taking back control, owning your strength, and realizing no one truly has the ability to destroy you. Such a powerful reminder of resilience and self-worth!
This is a powerful perspective. 💗
