I guess I really wasn’t worth it
When you said all those things
It just hurt so bad
Felt like I was physically ill
But all you could worry about was you
You
You
And how I should be that way too
You wanted me to change
Told me I needed to be like everyone else
Was I not good enough?
You said I did it on purpose
That no one liked me because I was me
That I purposely made everyone angry
That you were the one who had to make excuses
For why you were seen with me
You had to take the rumors and gossip
For sitting with me at lunch
You had to go anorexic
Because I wouldn’t
You had to cry because they didn’t like me
Did you ever once think about me?
You never had to deal with it
You thought it was so wrong
You were wrong.
What you did was wrong
I was happy being me
Happy so spend time with you
And not caring about the rest
I stayed with all my friends,
Even if it wasn’t socially accepted
But all you cared about was getting me in your ‘group’
Of friends, your happiness
But if it was so perfect
Why did you always come to see me
After school to cry?
Did you ever once think about me?
About how you always came to me for help
But never once asked if something was wrong
I know you saw all of the signs
I know you could see through my façade
Any good friend could
But you didn’t
You just continued to break me
Rip me apart at the seams
And I bet you didn’t even notice
How you treated me
Bet you thought I would just take it
But then I proved you wrong
I told you I would not listen anymore
That I was tired of hearing your problems
Tired of being the one who had to comfort you
Where was my comfort?
Where was my shoulder to cry on?
I was there for you, but you weren’t for me
And then it was all over
You never once even apologized
You just forgot me like all of the rest
Guess I wasn’t worth it
Oh well, I’m used to that
So if you are wondering why I haven’t bothered to call
Don’t.
You won’t like the answer
As true as it may be
Because imani,
You just aren’t worth me
Or my silly tears anymore
I’m happy once more,
Without you or your rules,
Without your stupid crew.
Imani I don’t need you anymore
And Imani, if you do read this don't be angry with me. It isn't worth it because I don't care anymore. You need to know the truth. And I would tell you, but you keep ignoring my calls, keep glaring at me every time we see each other. I guess i won't get used to that, but the ignoring part I'm used to. You always did that school anyway.
Oh, and i'm happy to not be you. At least i am comfortable in my skin, I'm happy with who I am. Happy I don't have to lie to have people to love me- bet you didn't guess that either. I have a boyfriend now, and am very happy. I have friends who cherish me for being me, and friends who will be there when I cry. Perhaps you could learn something from them, before you lose all your ghosts of freinds.
