Don't waste your time on me.

"Don't do it"
I starred at you, for a couple minutes, knowing the things that you could unleash if I gave you the key.
The permission to give away information I gave to you, when you were mine.
" Why not? We could be friends"
You said, with voice full of anger.


" I'm happy. Don't you understand that? I'm finally happy, without you.
I'm finally okay with fighting my own battles, and not being rescued. I realized what we had wasn't love, but lust.
It was your typical High School love story, and it ended. For a reason.
At the beginging it was sweet, and we were crazy about each other, but as time went on, feelings changed. I began to realize all you had done, was hurt me. And I was ready to move forward. I was ready for something new."

I spoke with fear, and you knew that I was lying.

" You miss me.
whether you'll admit it to me, or not. You might not want me back, but you miss what we had.
And  .. well maybe your not the only one.
I remember the way people would stare at us, so jelous of what we had.
I remember the way I'd think I was the luckiest boy in the world .. and how when I looked at you, I saw the most..."

I cut you off right there.

" STOP"

"I don't want to hear anymore of it.
Look, I don't want you back. I have someone. I am happy now. Just because you're not flying high enough, doesn't mean I have to come down with you. Look, we were good. But were not anymore.
And, I don't miss you."
"Go away!"



It was in the moment, where I had no idea what I had just said.
But, I didn't want to realize if I was lying or not.
Because, all I know right now is I'm happy.
And, right now, that's all I want to feel.

So, as you walked out the door,
you looked me in the eyes, and said words I never thought I'd ever hear from your mouth again,

" I love you boo, I always did, and I always will. Maybe you'll figure out you love me too one day, and when that day comes.. I hope you call me. I'll be waiting."
