I love how harsh this is. You can tell it was truly written with raw emotion.

It's horrible that people treat others like this. Even I had a situation like this. I was never so grateful to get away until I realized there wasn't an ounce of "truth" in them. Let alone love.

I like how you repeated the word "No." It showed that no matter what your brain was trying to convince your heart about that person was false. Your heart couldn't handle it anymore and it was time to go. Good riddance for that.

Your affirmations to yourself are honest and perhaps even exasperated. You are so fed up with this person not treating you right, when you know that there are so many other people in the world that would treat you so much better.

Brutal and precise. This perfectly echoes the level of anger that you should have at a toxic person.
The Wrath that you would feel would be immense. This enables you to see the darkness of the person you spoke to.
Love is a fickle thing, you can think you understand it and the next moment realize that you were incorrect. I love how this exemplifies that.
I personally have never been in this situation, but I know people who have. They had to fight through it, and they did pretty well.
People that make this behavior necessary are pests, and standing up to them is admirable.
Thank you for posting this. I quite enjoyed reading it.

Omg the amount of times I’ve been through this…haha. I don’t trust me now and when I do I have the habit of opening up completely and then living everyday scared of when they might hurt me or betray me. I know how this feels and the pure emotion in this short piece is like my heart jumped out onto the page. At times, I feel like I ask for too much but they don’t listen. So, I understand exactly how this feels. And we have to stand up for ourselves. Those people aren’t gonna be there for our whole lives but our sadness will be, let’s not waste our emotions on those type of people!

Your poem has touched my heart. You know, I've been through this situation...uno online

Wow, let me be the first to say—I absolutely loved your poem! The raw emotion and strength behind each word were incredibly powerful. It spoke to the courage of standing up for oneself and refusing to settle for less. Keep writing, seriously. Your words are an inspiration to all of us writers.
