To Someone I Could Never See Again

I don’t understand it. Maybe I never will, but I know it hurts like Hell.

Please, just be quiet now. I can’t take any more words from you.

Just shut up! Let me be for one moment. I can’t take any more, of

anything. You are yelling, screaming obscenities in my ears, I’m

trying to block it out. But somehow you’re voice pierces the barriers

I’m putting up.

I hate you. Hate everything you’ve become and I just wish you would

leave before you hurt me even more. I don’t want to talk anymore, I

am so exhausted by all this. Emotionally, I am drained and ready to

sleep. I wish I could say that I still love you, still want you here, but I

can’t. I can’t lie to you. Hatred is the only word that is spilling from

my lips.

I loved you once. Loved you so passionately, so purely. I would’ve

gladly given you the world, given you everything I had. But now, I can’t

even stand to hear your name. And I’m crying as I write this, wishing

that I could change everything, but I can’t. And I can’t take this any

more. So, I’m leaving now. Please, give me my keys. You can’t hold

me here like a prisoner. And I won’t be held captive.
