Permission To Hate Myself

how do I explain that

I'm happiest when happiness is out of reach?

when you're distant

and clearly don't want me there,

I can finally breathe -

you don't need me.

I can't destroy your future

because I was never in it. 

of course I could never leave.

you were perfect. 

you were an excuse to be

miserable.

You might consider rethinking your version of happiness.

' I can't destroy your future
because I was never in it. '

An emotional, yet honest thought.

I can finally breathe -
Gotta move on, especially if it's not meant to be.
