Breakup Letters

 

Dear life,
It’s not you, it’s me
When we started the journey, I thought it was for eternity

Dear god,
It’s not you, it’s me
When we were introduced, I believed you would watch my back no matter what

Dear love,
It’s not you, it’s me
When I was first smitten, I assumed it was for forever

Dear leader
It’s not you, it’s me
When we elected you, I expected our welfare to be your priority

Dear alcohol
It’s not you, it’s me
When we were acquainted, I supposed it was to make me forget

Dear memories
It’s not you it’s me
When it came flooding in, I presumed it was only the happy times

Let’s breakup!

Not really sure
Whether I am doing the right thing for the wrong reasons
Or doing the wrong thing for the right reasons
