Dear Chan.

Dear Chan.

A Poem by We are young.

You have it so wrong that you don't even know. 
Just because I didn't want you in my life. 
Doesn't mean I thought I was better.
Just because I love myself. 
Doesn't mean I'm egotistic.
I wanted out, and I wanted away. 
I was at the edge, I was either going to kill myself. 
Or have to change. 
I changed, and you didn't. 
I wasn't strong enough. 
See that I can take responsibility.
I wasn't strong enough and I couldn't handle you. 
I wanted to be happy.
Do you know how good it feels?
Yeah Iv'e been a little selfish. 
But do you see how many chances I've gave you?
Seriously count back on all the times. 
I let it slide, and forgave you the next day.
You pulled my final straw, and I wanted you away. 
I wasn't judging. 
Wasn't even really being selfish. 
I tried so hard with you.
And I just wanted to be happy, 
have a carefree life, and just live. 
You pulled me back,
 so I did anything to make sure you weren't going to come back into my life. 
I really just couldn't handle you. 
Your drama, 
your suicide threats, 
the worry. 
I was done.

It is true that we should choose ourselves over anyone when it comes to being happy. Well organised and well written lines. Keep it up!

Gripping, emotionally burning write. You reveal a deep pain.. angst that created a division.. a rift between you.. You write with amazing feeling.
