unscathed you’ve killed me with your words we’ve ended it many times and now you call me back saying that you want me in your life and that you don’t see me as just a friend (well you better not, since you fucked me) - and that you don’t want to throw away what we have been building (and what were we building when you dumped me?) and that you’re praying to your god that i’ll take your calls and that you’ve been crying your eyes out and that you hope that makes me feel better well, it does, my friend and it’s my turn now and i’m going to put you through hell because you’ve done it to me, and come to think of it, you’re not my friend and no one hurts me like this and comes out of it unscathed Copyright Janet Kuypers.
