Am I The Ahole?
Claudius
May 2020
I cannot process a heartbreak that I have yet to begin.
Not a lover, but a friend that left my heart in two.
15 years of memories, laughs, secrets, and sleepovers.
From grade 3, yet you still found it in your heart to leave.
Do you know how it feels? Acerbic.
I just tried to show you the red flags yet he convinced you that I was one instead.
You chose a man that cares for nothing more than getting in your pants, over a friend that only wants you to be safe
Was it easy for you to give us up?
You made the decision so suddenly that the knife of numbness is still stuck in my heart.
I'm scared of what I'll feel once I try to remove it.
For now it's fear of what will happen when you're left with just him.
I look at myself and wonder if I'm a bad person for letting you stay.
Then I look at pictures of you and remember you decided to drop me.
Yet I still pose the the question "Am I the *******?"

OLD

To be old doesn't mean out in the cold cause you have greatly slowed and can easily be controlled
Or becoming enclosed people trying to remold by gaining a foothold.
That's an absolute no. Because to be old is to behold countless stories untold so they need to be consoled and never try to remold, that's just plane being an *****.
Yes, the old need to be bestowed for great wisdom can be foretold and it will come back tenfold.
So when you are with the old, don't scold, don't explode and never try to control because it will come back twofold when you grow OLD.
