Letter I Wrote to Myself
You are toxic
You are poison to the people around you
You are manipulative and twisted and sinister
You do not feel
You love with your mind, not your heart
You are cold and calculating,
and nothing could ever warm your heart
You find beauty in pain
You find light in suffering
When you say “I love you”,
you are empty
When you say “I’m sorry”,
it sounds like “I don’t care”
You want emotion detachment
You do not want to be hugged or cradled
You do not want love or affection
You want someone just as cold as you are
Maybe someone colder, so you don’t feel like the villain again
You are toxic, and I should remove you from my life
But I can’t
