I Am Over You

I am over you Your scent turns my stomach It sends a strong anger down my spine The sight of you makes me wish I had a laser in my eyes I am over you When I am drowning I stay afloat The rage I feel is like a molten magma That cannot be crushed I am over you Your presence is like a shadow Devoid of meaning and purpose Every nook and cranny Is filled with memory regrets Of the worthlessness I pursued I am over you Your closeness to my proximity Makes my heart go into a vegetative state Filled with regrets of the time I had spent with you Who are you kidding?

When those we care about prove to be toxic, it's time to let go and move on. Beautiful write that deserves a 7! Warmest regards. Pandita
