The Chip On My Shoulder

Dear Dan,
I'd ask how you're doing,
But I don't care
Only writing this letter
On paper that's spare
I'll admit that I thought
About you once or twice
No need to write back
Just a read would suffice
I've decided to tell you
What I should have done then
When I caught you with her
Who I thought was my friend
You told me you were sorry
A drunken mistake
I saw through the lies
How your story was fake
And you texted me after
It was all so quick
Like me, the balloon
And you, the prick
You burst me and watched me
Deflate to the ground
You left me with nothing
Just the sadness I found
I wallowed in misery
'Til one day I knew
I was worth more than this
And worth more than you
I went back to school
With a smile on my face
I no longer felt misery
Or shame or disgrace
I heard she had a baby
Congrats! (Not too late?)
Although you are young
I'm sure you'll be great!
You may guess that I lied,
I do really care
You were my first love
And that will always be there
Tell my sister I'm happy she's found such a guy
Even though you weren't hers,
You really were mine
But I've forgiven, forgotten
A smile, not a frown
For this chip on my shoulder
Was weighing me down
Love always,
Emma

My Friend The Fish

Why I even liked you in the start, I don't even know how it could be true. Why I let you break my heart, I don't know the answer to. Today I was talking to you, Then another girl walked on by.

He Was Gone.

She cried, Silent tears tumbling, She signed, And fell asleep mumbling, He was gone, Just like the others, Not 'the one' she curled up alone under the covers, He cheated, Used her as is she was...

Enough

Enough with your lying. Enough with your crying. I am not the same anymore. I am done trying. I gave you a chance. To man up and get out of this trance. But you are addicted to fiction.
