Chapter 89 - Beneath the waves.

She did say that she was sorry,

I guess the ball was in my court...

Fuck that.

Don't bother reaching out,

I know your wicked sort...

I don't know if she really meant it,

All those thoughts I did abort.

I don't need the closure from her.

No emotional support.

-

It's been 4482 days.

I don't miss

The lack of kisses,

I don't miss

Her somber ways.

I don't think of how

She made me feel

So far, beneath the waves.

I no longer deal

In curb appeal,

I've colored in the grays.

-

I dove deeper,

Deeper,

Deeper.

I have healed me.

I'm a keeper.

I watch closer

For the red flags,

I avoid the lowly creepers.

I don't want the superficial,

I look deep

Into their peepers.

Keep away from all the hasty types.

Watch out for risky leapers.

-

She said;

"I'm sorry for being toxic..."

I didn't believe her.

Screenshotted and locked it...

I could hardly process,

Through the shock and distress,

My fuckin' mind,

Once again, she rocked it...

Emotional gun, pulled it out

And she cocked it...

-

It took me a whole year

Just to sit down

And read that text.

It was so hard

Just to fathom it,

I struggled to digest.

She never apologized,

She carried all those lies

So deep within her chest.

She had too much pride,

To reconcile,

Her ego lined her vest.

-

She said;

"I'm sorry for not giving you

The love that you deserved."

Who was that for?

You fucking stomped my heart,

And threw it to the curb.

If you suddenly got a message

From someone who had abused you,

How would you respond to all of that?

Tell me...

What then would you do?

-

How do I accept those words,

When all she ever gave was pain?

How do I believe those honied lines

When all she brought was rain?

How can I

Let all this heavy go

Without going insane?

All the memories

Flood into me.

They pull me down the drain.

-

I loved your rain...

Hated it too...

You wanted him...

I needed you...

You needed proof...

And so I gave it,

All you ever did

Was take it...

Just to break it...

Just to shake it...

I was all in.

I was naked...

That was sacred...

How'd you make it

All those years?

How did you fake it?

-

Never loved me.

You just used me.

Broke me down.

Fucking abused me.

Just to lose me,

Then, to not let go.

So selfish.

Diabolical...

-

It took me two years

Just to shake you.

Cut your roots out,

I can't take you

To my future.

There's no room for you.

Fuck no.

Your past

Needs room

For two.

That's crazy...
