I Am Over You

I am over you
Your scent turns my stomach
It sends a strong anger down my spine
The sight of you makes me wish
I had a laser in my eyes

I am over you
When I am drowning I stay afloat
The rage I feel is like a molten magma
That cannot be crushed

I am over you
Your presence is like a shadow
Devoid of meaning and purpose
Every nook and cranny
Is filled with memory regrets
Of the worthlessness I pursued

I am over you
Your closeness to my proximity
Makes my heart go into a vegetative state
Filled with regrets of the time 
I had spent with you
Who are you kidding?

When those we care about prove to be toxic, it's time to let go and move on. Beautiful write that deserves a 7! Warmest regards. Pandita
