i guess it’s time for me to move on
for real this time - with no
looking back at all
i know because you sent
your last text four months ago
and because i saw the
picture of you and the girl
you tried with for two years
but rejected you and
went for your friend
i know because when i think
of you, i’m not hurt
i’m mad and dissatisfied,
the way i should have been
when you referred to me
as second in line
you couldn’t reach the sun
so you settled for the moon

there are some who
say if it’s meant to be,
it will be
and there are some who
say that destiny is
subjective
but please don’t
ever think you have
to give up
your dignity,
kneel on your knees
or say sorry
more than you
have to
you don’t have
to beg for your
destiny
if you find that
they’re too far ahead
that you can’t see
them anymore,
stop chasing

1. I am a lioness you didn’t know you disturbed and how to tame, I would have been fine without you.
2. I can’t say this was my cousin’s fault, but sometimes I wish I’d never met you so I didn’t have to feel like there’s a void in my heart that is the size of the universe. You make me feel empty - no, you empty me, even now.
3. I let you under my skin, and inside my head and you found that it was too crowded with existentialism; I thought I had found my life’s meaning when you showed up, love seemed like an awfully good reason to be alive.
3. You told me to get over it instead of helping me get through it.
4. I left because you made it seem like you had no more reason to stay.
5. You chose your friends over me, I had to choose myself over you.
6. But wherever you are, I hope you’re happy.
7. Don’t think of me as an ex. Think of me as a practice dummy, a test run, so you don’t feel bad about hurting me. I had to teach you how to love, so you’ll know what to do when you find the right one.
8. Just because I’m not the one for you anymore, doesn’t mean I never was.
8. But was I ever the right one?
9. You said I was the best thing in your life, I didn’t think ‘right now’ lasted two weeks.
10. I still keep your Valentine card between the pages of Mockingjay when Katniss realised she loved Peeta.
10. I’m still writing about you, and you seem to be doing perfectly fine without me.
11. I still remember when you told me you were up all night thinking about me, and how terrified I felt.
12. My heart literally skipped a bit when we first held hands.
13. Sometimes I forget what I told you the night of our first kiss. I said: I will fall in love with you, you don’t have to love me back. I’m gonna give you all my heart. 4 seconds of insane and humiliating courage.
13. I’m sorry I expected more than you can give.
13. Sometimes I wish I’d stayed, because leaving feels almost the same as being left.
13. I ask my cousin about her friends, hoping she’d mention how you are, I hope it’s nice where you are.

i. forget how he asked you
to dance with him, and you did
even when you’re not much for it
ii. remember how he wasn’t
man enough to request that
ed sheeran song you wanted
to be playing

And you said you’d always be there for me.
And I let you under my skin.
And you gave me a Valentine card.
And I wrote you a poem on a napkin.
And we shared childhood stories.
And we shared future dreams.
And then you got preoccupied with those dreams.
And I got preoccupied with missing you.
And I got drunk and told you true things.
And later on you said they were just ********
And then I agreed and maybe hurt you a bit.
And then you found out about my flaws.
And you chose your friends over me.
And then I chose myself over you.
And I asked if you were staying because you want to.
And then you said you were sorry.

to you
you know who you are
i wrote you a poem
on a napkin once
i wonder if it’s still
in your jacket’s pocket
i wonder what you’ll
think when winter comes
back around and you
find it casually when
you slip your hand
in because it’s cold
i wonder if you’ll
remember how warm
we were with our
starbucks, with your
arms around me
will you remember me
this winter?
i'll remember you
this winter
