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
