It's kind of funny when you think we can still be friends
When you break up with me as if we met yesterday
I'm mad, oh yeah, but it's okay. You never seemed to realise when I was mad. You had too much anger yourself.
I've decided I'm not going to spend too much time worrying about you because if you break up with me over text those 14.5 months appearantly didn't mean a lot.
I thought you knew it was rude to do that. You could've written me a letter if that was better.
But honestly, I'm not suprised. After the whole fall-in-love-with-your-best-friend thing, all my friends are glad we broke up. They see it as if I broke up with you. They're mad at you, they said you didn't deserve a second chance after Pleun. It wasn't a big deal to me, but they're always right after all.
Some of them offered to stab you. I said no, but then I almost got myself stabbed. I just want you to know that I don't need you to fight for me. I've been fighting for myself the past 15 months and I've been doing just fine.
You don't need to be nice to me either. I don't know if you try to, or if you just are because you're forced. Either way, it's pointless.
I've fallen in love with this guy in my class. It's extremely pathetic, though I already liked him before you left me. He's 4 inches taller than me, completely stupid and cute. He's not mine yet, but I'm putting the emphasis on yet. I've written more poetry about him in the past week than I have about you in the past 5 months. I guess that explains a lot.
There's a lot of things I'd tell you, but none of them really apply to this situation.
I've tried to ignore you because conversation would probably make this worse. Like when you texted me on my birthday. After all, I forgot yours.
I hope you're happy with Pleun. You two looked like a perfect couple at play rehearsal. I don't know if it was to make me jealous, but he seems right for you.
Good luck with the rest of your life, I think. We'll cross paths at play rehearsal and in the hallways, but next year you'll go off to some college and I'll never see you again. I think my family's glad too.
So anyways, if there's still something you wanna say to me, you can say it to my face. Don't worry about my friends being there, they didn't like you very much anyways.
