I'm Done

By chococat_122

I've warned you time and time again.

When she breaks you, shatters you, casts you
Off again, this time I'm
Not picking you up.
This time you'll suffer.

Because I've suffered for what feels like an
Eternity for you.

There was no reason to. You weren't
Here when I needed you. You gave
Everything to her.

Only she could make you happy,
Nothing
Else.

Time to understand how
Often I've really saved you.

Could I ever mean
A thing to you again? Did I ever in
The first place?
Can't really say, my
Heart was broken too many times to really know.

You know, as
Often as you promised your
Undying friendship, you weren't worth it.

Never again. I won't
Ever suffer for you again. One too many
X-rays showed a failing heart, a
Threat to my sanity.

Tempting as you can make
It seem, your friendship isn't worth
My time. I meant nothing to you while you were
Everything to me.

Yet I still saved you
On more occasions than my
Unfortunate soul can ever count.

Forget that though. Obviously you
Already have. Now its time I
Learn to do the same.
Listen just to this one last line:
{You're no longer worth my pain}

The pain in it was good, felt like pseudo-nostalgia, looking back, very strong resolution theme which was well handled. Thanks for the write :) The story in it kinda got to me- that this person will always want that other "she". Nice, well done.
