"We are better together."

Those words don't necessarily fit everyone

For instance

At first...

When you left me

I cried for weeks straight

I was really hurt

But now I feel so much better

Better together?

Being together was torture

To be brutally honest...

I've never felt better without you :)

And I was afraid I wouldn't be able to live without you

Yet here I am, living still breathing

To think I thought you were the key to my happiness

But that's not true

I have friends that make me smile and laugh

I don't need you anymore

I never needed you

I wanted you

How stupid of me

This idiotic dream that I could have you.

And that one day you would want me

But never mind that

I can not save room in my heart for someone who constantly looks down upon me and sees me only as a bug

I have no room for someone who is selfish enough to never ask me...

"Are you ok?"

Because I'm not

I wasn't ok to begin with

And for you to not care, is something that smacks me atop of my head and throws me back into reality.

And the reality was

You never loved me

You never asked if I was fine

Because you never cared

You never asked to hang out

Because you didn't like my company

You never approached me while I was crying

Because you didn't care enough to think... 'Where is she?'

I cared

You were sitting alone

You looked sad

But you faked a smile

I know you

You didn't want to cry

Because you're a boy

But to me

Everyone needs to cry

It's ok to cry

And I cared

I asked what was wrong

And you told me

But after that you still ignored me

I'm sorry if I ever hurt you

I'm sorry to f you never liked me

I don't like me either

But remember

Even when I'm gone and no longer remembered

"It's ok to cry."
