Matangi

She was sitting atop the hill waiting for you under the night sky, iktsuarpok. Waiting so she could spill her dirty secrets out to you, hoping you'd help her ease the pain. For she was an illunga unlike the schadenfreude you were.

She was fanaá in your love. And you were a fool. You stood her up for a skank dressed in triangles, caked in a pound of make up and for a few hits.
You stood her up for all the plastic things you wanted to escape from in highschool.
And i feel sorry for you. For she loved you with such a burning passion that even Fire would quiver away. Sorry that you had someone to accept you for all your flawed glory. Through all your records. Through all your mess.

But Im thankful. Thankful that you left her. Thankful that she got rid of the leech that you were; silently sucking the life out of her. Thankful that she will finally find someone day who'll be grateful to have her in their life and wonder how they got so lucky. ❄
