Old friend

It is in your narcissistic nature
To tell me that you tried
And that you were a great friend
And that you are flawless
I used to swallow your poisoned lies
You made me believe that I needed you
I dont.

I stopped caring,
I stopped loving,
I stopped trusting,
But only you.
I know what is real.
I know what a friend is.
Someone who helps me grow
Encouragement and support 
Truth and trust

You gave me nothing but regret
I was trapped in your hollow love
Unsafe and scared
I worried constantly 
What if I say something wrong?
You are a bully.
I felt fear.
My dreams disturbed me.

One day it clicked
I don’t need you.
So I blocked you,
Said goodbye,
And I didn’t talk to you
But you can’t accept that
You are a parasite.

“Don’t ignore me”
“Unblock me please”
“This is stupid”
I’ve heard it before 
Your lies are transparent.
The truth is
You’re scared that I don’t need you
You are so desperate to cling on to me

I used to think I needed you
I apologised 
A lot
Said empty words to avoid conflict 
But it is not my fault 
That you are intimidated by my ability to survive without you

If you truly loved me
Why didn’t you ever show it?
Be nice
Say sorry
Is it so hard for you to think about someone other than yourself?

So
I’m leaving 
Call me a bitch
Threaten me
It doesn’t work anymore
You don’t hold power over me anymore 
I’m leaving.
I don’t need your response or reaction
I’m doing this for me
I’m doing this to be free
