I, MYSELF

Dear ______.

I hate you and wish to never see you again. When we were together I felt like I belonged and now, I don't know where or who I am. I wish I had never met you and I wish that what happened between us never had happened. You told me I'd fail at life and that I would never do better than you. Well guess what! I already know I can do better because one day I'm going to find someone who loves me and wants me. And I will be successful and one day you're going to see me and want me back but I will never ever let you hurt me again. I trusted you and now I will always have trust issues. I once loved you but I will never love you again.

Some nights I miss you and cry myself to sleep and have to resist the urge to call you and hear your voice. You were my best friend and I told you everything, everything. But you just threw everything out the window and I have no respect left for you. I can't allow myself to love you, it's like a wall I put up and if that wall ever collapses then I don't know what I'll do. Days go by and sometimes I hate myself for ever saying goodbye.
