Dear Ex-Boyfriend

Stephanie Bickford

 

---

 

Your words are like vinegar on an open wound,

But I don’t feel the sting anymore.

Your stares send chills through me.

I ignore you.

Ignorance is something you have become accustomed to,

I won’t stand for it.

Don’t flatter yourself and tell me to get over you,

I am far past that.

Don’t talk about me to my friends,

They know how you really are.

Don’t act like you are the innocent one,

I see right through you.

Beware that I won’t fall back into your conniving trap,

I have learned from my mistakes.

You cheat, you lie, and in the long run you will lose.

I know you now.

I know you better than I ever did in happier times.

I am stronger.

You will never make me cry again.

So go on a do what you do best.

In my life you don’t exist.­
