I need to get something off my chest
I'm not anything like the rest
And I'm not in any sort of rush
Since I have morals and such
Now with out you blowing up with my phone
I find myself newly alone
But really I'm okay with this
The things I'm can do are in this list:

Because you just don't give a fuck
I'm gonna smash all the windows of your truck.
I'm telling you to kiss my ass
By flirting with the guy from my PreCalc class.
I'm gonna go to club and dance with guys
And eat a lot more loaded cheese fries.
I'm gonna wear those shorter shorts
Because to you I no longer have to report
My every movement every night
Even though I'm in the right.
I've filled a trash bag with all your stuff
I'll burn it because I've had enough.
I'm gonna drive around with the windows down
My new found happiness will make you frown.
I can have friends that are boys
Because I am not your toy.

And on those cold and lonely nights
I'll think about all the unnecessary fights
That you started to keep my in line
And to play head games with my mind.
So I'll grab a blanket and my pooch
ExBoyfriend, you can kiss my cooch.

Now you can go. You're finally freed.
Drink your vodka and smoke your weed.
Sorry I'm not as cool as you
There are things I just won't do.
I'm not going to change myself
To get approval from anyone else.
Not even you.
I'm through.
I'm free.

There were some racy lines in there but I absolutely loved it! It rhymed perfectly and it was filled with gritty anger and utter freedom. I loved it. It's the type of poem we all hope to write when we are going through a break up. One that declares I freedom and announces what we want to do now with it. Thank you so much for sending it in!

Becca.
