The Break Up Letter
Location
(poems go here) This is my break up letter: to the only real enemy I have. This letter was written symbolically when I first accepted Christ. I said yes to God, and no to Satan. Now, 10 years later I've written it down for the world to view.
Dear Satan,
I guess this is how you start a break up letter; I mean I’ve never written one.
I guess I could start by saying that I’ve moved on, meaning that WE are done.
You see, I’m tired of all the mind games, the lying and reprove.
I’m tired of being tied down, when everything in me tells me to move.
Yes I’m leaving you for someone else, and He’s a Prince the Son of a King.
I’m quite sure you understand all the things you’ve done
I don’t want an apology but I’m telling you JUST. LET. ME. BE
I’m done with the manipulation,
The expectation
The conversations
The plans you have for my annihilation.
The rhythm of my spirit becoming unsteady
Because I was unready
And too petty
To see the truth
Telling me right was wrong and I just LET you.
I’ll admit this one thing, since I’m confessing anyways
I know that you’re the obsessive type, and you’ll bug me from day to day
But nothing will change
Nothing will break
Give way
Or shake
I’m DONE.
I let you make a fool out of me before but I won’t do it again
You’ve convinced me before but not this time no, I’m not letting you in
This time I’m stronger
Faster
Wiser
My eyes, they’re open wider
And I see you for who you are
A murder
A liar
A cheater and a prostitute
Something you wanted to make out of me spiritually, when my spirit was destitute
But I know better now, and I’m glad to see you go
Resist the devil and he will flee right?
Signed,
You already know.
