Goddess

that old apple watch u gave me, 

u know~ the one your ex gifted u

& u didn’t bother telling me until months later~

yeah, i went & traded it in

& got me something newer & better

just like i did u

i traded u in for my peace, my life, my happiness

i got my life back

the watch was used just like u used me

the watch was old just like our love now seems to be

it’s funny because the watch was regifted

kinda like u belonging to someone else in marriage

& stuck on ur exes in the ways u would project onto me constantly 

but still wanting to regift yourself to me

made yourself seem shiny & new, ready for someone like me

yet u had to lie constantly just to appear worthy enough to keep me

wasn’t it ur ex who ended up being the one to tell me you’re married?

& that u were still wearing the promise ring she gifted u?

how obsessive of u, & manipulative

yet u called me the manipulative one

i laugh because it truly is hilarious to me now

u were never truthful with me

but now i know it is because i am levels above what u will never reach

u had ur chance with someone so beautiful & sweet

a Goddess, in every way she can be

& your 15 minutes ran out

see i wore that watch on my wrist for months,

not knowing it belonged to someone from ur past

i carried around that energy

& truth be told i am too good for it

so i did the right thing for myself

& got rid of it

just like ur love letters,

just like those gifts,

just link our matching bracelets

because i want nothing associated with u

i cannot wait for the day my body sheds all the cells that ever were in contact with u

the day cannot come soon enough where i no longer remember ur name

ur memory, i abhor it

& i can never look back on our time fondly,

for it was anything but sweet

be rid of me forever,

& live with the consequences.
