Everytime you break up,
don't come home crying.
instead come home finding
a Nail Cutter.
take a look at your hand and pick out a finger .
(the more they have hurt you, the bigger finger you choose)
cut the nail of your akin finger as you cut out links with them.
and you will realize
how much of dirt was growing under your skin, while
you were busy appreciating the length.
i know,
ultimately they will grow again
as you meet new people. but this time,
clean regularly,
refine and reshape
take time to grow
and eventually apply a pretty nail paint .
which will put quite a show.

Dealing with break ups whether with beau or bestie is a painful and difficult task. But finding a healthy way to get over someone is the toughest of all.
The poem offers a modern way of channelling your anger for them who've caused you pain. It might not change the external circumstances but it, sure as hell, changes the internal ones.
