A Poem by Tessa Melendez
"

Me: "Will you miss me?" Him: "No." Him: "But, you'll be great right?" Me: "I'll be great because you're leaving my life?" Him: "Uh-huh."

"
It's nice to know I don't mean a thing to you
I could've sworn our friendship was true
After all the things I told you.

I suppose, it was all just me
Me having all the feelings again.
Me doing all the real talking
Leaving myself as an open book for all to read

It's nice to know that you won't miss me...
As I move on with my life,
And you move on with yours
Even after I told you of my times of strife

I guess, it should be no surprise...
I lay here in my bed,
Pouring this from both my heart and my head...
Music in my ears...

All of it bringing me to tears

But, I know that...right now...
You're probably at home without a thought of me in your mind
Just one week before I'm gone
Already months of friendship left behind

I'm so sorry, I assumed a friendship existed
All the talks and laughs...
All the honesty and stories...

I thought that's something of what a friendship was

At least you broke my heart sooner than later
Now, the pain won't leave a crater
I won't go on believing in something that isn't true
So, really I should thank you.

But, I won't

I won't thank you for breaking my f***ing heart,
For being another who never really gave a s**t
You knew how I've been hurt
I guess you never cared one bit

I like how you played like an a*s at the end
Telling me you expected me to become great and to change
All because of you
I can't even describe the power of the ache and the rage

Another person with expectations in the sky
While I'm somewhere among the trees

I wanted to say, "F**k you."
And walk away
But, kindness was thrown in the way
Always overpowering my rage and ache
Overpowering my shock...

But, soon we'll see how you feel when I throw in your f***ing face that Revealing was for you
But, you wouldn't know
You didn't care to read it.
I guess that was my first sign of how little you gave a s**t.

My tears are gone now, 
Replaced by silent anger,
And the boiling "F**k you" in my heart
There is no question of how.

ah the youthful struggle of friendship, one that will never leave you however you will control in time, a most filling piece and one to ponder, well done.

Thank you for your review.
Sometimes the loss or end of a friendship or relationship leaves a bigger hole than we can fully comprehend. All the unanswered why's and what's and when's, the knowing the answers won't be forthcoming and all we can do is try to piece it all together ourselves. A job that feels like a million piece jigsaw of blackness, where no hint or clue where each piece goes. My heart goes out to you for being left feeling this, a feeling I know too well.
