Let's break up,
because I feel terrible for shackling you
to my unnecessary emotions,
excessive venting
and unpredictable mood swings.

Let's break up,
because I feel terrible for dragging you down
with my near-constant negativity,
destructive emptiness
and unprovoked anger.

Let's break up,
because I feel terrible for making you lie
about wanting to be there for me,
making me smile no matter what
and loving me unconditionally.

Let's break up,
because I feel terrible for roping you in
to have feelings for a monstrosity,
a disappointment,
a failure that is me.

i guess i would've named this poem "Let's break up", but i wanted the title to be words that didn't appear in the poem for once.

also, sorry if this was trash i just wanted to get some emotions outta my system.
