I should have left you so much sooner. I should have walked away on Valentine's Day when you wouldn't stop talking about her. I should have let go of your hand, I should have dropped that stupid bear at your feet and thrown those flowers in the road. I should have told you not to touch me if you tried to pull me back. I should have walked to IHOP in the cold, I should have gotten a table in my brother's section and told him he was right, you were an ******* I should have bought heart shaped chocolates and eaten them alone in my room and listened to Adele on repeat. I should have rejected your calls, I should have deleted your number from my phone (even though I had it memorized). I should have broken your heart, because you sure as hell broke mine. God **** it, I should have left you so much sooner.

I'm still bitter. So sue me.
