Face to Face Breakup
I had the privilege of attending a wedding the other day
After sharing a conversation with the couple
And being told that in the midst of all of the arguments
Abuse was never an occurrence
I finally realized
That this “love”
Isn’t really love at all
And in this moment I have decided
I’m breaking up with you
Face to Face
Because
I can’t bring myself to text
Because I know
That love is supposed to be a flowing waterfall so strong and beautiful that the world can’t seem to figure out what made it
Or why it exists
Love
Is
Supposed to be A bird soaring through the sky without knowing that it’s traveled past its destination
Love
Is
Supposed to be A wildflower eager to grow and show the eternity that in those few seconds of a bloom there’s a process creating life and peace
Everything you never gave me
You tear my emotional body limb from limb
You called me no good
Worth less
Useless
Told me that the day I laid down
And never got back up was going to be the first day the world smiled
You let me know that giving up WAS an option
You made sure that I knew what “No You Can’t” means
You are no good for me
You are worthless to me
You are useless to me
Because I need REAL love
And I know that now
But this is hard for me to do
Believe me when I tell you this
The hardest thing I’ve ever had to do Deja is look in this mirror and break up with you.
