Cutting Ties with Your Ex: A Poem

I’m too tired for this today.

I have no words to say

all the things I need to.

Let’s not begin again.

I don’t want my head to spin.

This raised tone that drones on and on,

us talking sounds like a skipping song.

There’s too much tension from where we’ve come.

You say it’s love, I say you’re wrong.

We’re too attached with disconnect.

I can’t stand it. Let me collect

my sanity that I’ve lost

at the cost of depleting pride.

I’ve stayed with you though it kills inside.

No guts to leave, so I hide.

It’s not healthy, how we relate.

We love as strong as we hate.

So I think It’s time I say,

“We both should go our separate ways.”
