The Pink Slip
The love me and you shared expired years ago
The many times I spent attempting to love you
Didn't really mean anything to you so my love we are through
Just like a plague you destroy everything you touch
You are worse than a disease that I cannot remedy myself from
Like hot lava I knew you would travel slowly and burn my soul in every way
Because of you I will never be the same, this beautiful soul full of despair
Watching the clock on the wall, time continues to go by and with each minute that goes by turns into years.
The years of failed behaviors has lead to this moment where you are more hazardous to me than ever.
You were overdue to supply and demand my heart with the means necessary to thrive, and I don't even know why
I continued to be petty and naive all at the same damn time
Even when I discovered the level of emotional debt you have left me with, pisses me off
Every text message, phone conversation, valentines day card and birthday gift and wish was not real
How dare you ask me to help you heal
No, No, No...Heart be still
You have given enough
You have been awarded the Invalid Human Experience Award of the Year
While this evacuation is hard for you because of unapologetic patterns
It is very easy for me
Here ya go, What is this you say?
Oh, this is your Pink Slip of Evacuation
