That may sound harsh, but its the truth.

Dont tag me in cute Facebook videos.

Dont ask my family or my friends how Im doing.

If you see me in a bar or around town, dont come and say hello to me.

If you pass me on the street, keep walking.

I dont want to hear from you.

I dont want to see you.

I dont want anything from you.

I dont want anything to do with you.

That may sound harsh, but the reality is that there is no reason for us to talk anymore.

We dont have to make small talk about our days.

We dont have to ask what is on the other persons mind.

We dont have to harbor resentment anymore.

Were free, so why not spread our wings and fly?

Our friendship ended with our romance, and even calling us acquaintances at this point would be generous.

We dont have to pretend to care more than we do, so why bother speaking at all?

Our flickering flame burned out, and our time in the sunset.

That may sound harsh, but its the truth.

Were the same side of two different magnets.

Any attraction between us had to be forced and would not take naturally.

I dont hate you.

I never have, nor do I think I ever could.

We were just never meant to be lovers.

We probably were never meant to be friends.

Hell, maybe we were never meant to exist in each others lives whatsoever.

Above all of this, I still want the best for you.

I want you to be happy.

I just dont want to hear about it.

I dont need to hear about the passion between you two that was never there with us.

I dont need to see how he makes you happier than I ever could.

I cannot be the shoulder to cry or the attentive ear when he makes you upset.

Its easier to just walk away and never look back.

Its easier to accept our time together and move on.

Its easier to pretend like you dont exist.

That may sound harsh, but Id rather tell you an ugly truth than a beautiful lie.
