dear {redacted},

you gut my emotions,

like the buckets at the park.

the place we celebrated together,

filling them up with emotion,

waiting for you to make them feel empty again.


my hate for you is like a shadow,

always present,

yet never there.


i yearn to hate you.

as i yearned for your empty promises.

in the way

i harm my body,

just as you harmed me.


our memories

play in my head,

like an old piece of film,

thrown away

just to be replaced

as a better version of it’s

original.


you left,

as the leaves on a tree

in mid fall.

 

you finally gutted my emotions,

made me feel empty.

because after all,

leaves change,

and so do we
