Make A Wish

Dear Nobody, 

Are you done yet? Because I'm finally through with your games. Honestly, how long did you think you could keep stringing me along? For something that was so short, you made it feel like a lifetime, we've reached our expiration date. But just so you know, it's not me, it's you. 

Just remembering how everything was so perfect those first couple of weeks, makes this bittersweet. Reminiscing about that night when we told each other, comfortably, like the bed we sat on. The way I could \ just be myself, pulled me in, but it was a sham, and I was blinded. Eventually we talked less and less and then that dreadful day that ended it all. Nothing about that day was your fault, I stopped everything in its tracks, but why couldn't I have ended that chapter? You quickly moved on, like always, you find the next rebound and you bounce around until your finally lose momentum and are in some dusty corner, completely forgot about (where you should be).

And when you got bored with that other girl and hurt her, you decided to come back to me. Any sane girl would've showed you the door, right? Well that would explain the straight jacket. This time was different, I was being used, like a pawn in chess. Little old me, always available whenever it was convenient for you, but the next day you were no where to be seen, vanished into thin air.

But all hope I had is gone, like you, I've had enough.

So this is how it ends? I wish it didn't have to be like this, but it's your loss, I gained too much respect for myself to let you control me anymore. Our relationship reminds me of a trick candle: They are so mesmerizing at first, the bright flaming drawing you in, and finally its time to extinguish the flame, the magic is over, or so you think. You're happy its finally over, and suddenly its back in your face without warning, you can try to get rid of it, repeatedly putting it out, but it just keeps coming back.

Do me a favor and stay away for good, nobody likes trick candles, and nobody likes you.

  1. I really like your writing style! Very intense and attention grabbing. I also like the comparison to a trick candle at the very end. It is a great metaphor. One thing that I noticed that was different from many of the other blogs I've read was that you gave your post a title. Not just a stereotypical title like "Break Up" or something either, but an actual title like a story should have. Awesome job!
