Years had gone by and a lot had changed.
I have changed. And I say it's for the better.
Like a moth to a flame, I am attracted to you. All this time, it was you.
But this is the price for the crown I am wearing. I had to endure everything that has to come my way. God, give me strength. 
I am a strong girl, perhaps I had grown from my previous lives.
I cannot let my emotions rule over my head, and I'm glad I'm doing well.
I have learned to let go and cherish what I have.
Words aren't enough to explain but I am positive towards life now.
And I'm burning bridges, so that I wouldn't be able to cross the path I shouldn't have been to begin with. 
So maybe this is what God meant about 'pruning'. In order for a tree to grow healthy, pruning unhealthy branches is a must for it to fully grow and bear fruits.
Same applies to us. And God did the same thing for me.
And I'm glad He did. He gave me the strength to endure the consequences while He's doing his plans. And my job is to just bend, whenever he asks me to.

Sure it hurts a little, but it'll make me strong and bear healthy fruits in the long run. Like a moth to a flame, I am attracted to the good things in life God had provided for me. The super typhoon that had passed left so many lessons. 

And dealing with heartaches is one of those lessons I had to learn.
Thank you, God, for giving me the opportunity to feel pain. Because without it, I'm like a moth, so attracted to the dangerous flame, that will cause its end.
I maybe like a moth, attracted to the wrong things, but I have known all along that it isn't right. So I wouldn't dare touch what I know will hurt me in the end.
I'll just leave the flame to God.
I wouldn't be the same person I was. I came back, feeling much better about now.
I'm looking ahead, and will never look back, because God said so.
And I believe in him.

For that one man who gave me so much to remember, thank you. 
You can't protect me anymore. So worry about yourself. Be happy. =)
