Sydnie
Dear Ex,
Not my ex, but his
You and I have never met
But I feel connected to you
Like I'm in competition with you.
You and he haven't spoken in years
He married me
Yet I still feel like I'm losing to you.
I saved myself for him,
I saved everything for him.
But he gave everything to you.
They say
When you lose your virginity
You're rooted to that person.
Why am I rooted to you?
I should hate you
The way he hates you.
But I don't.
I can't.
I pray for you,
Can you believe it?
I pray that you'll find happiness
And grow as a person
And that you'll face conviction.
I pray that you apologize to him
And me,
The girl you've never met.
And I pray for me too.
That I'll retire my obsession
Of comparing myself to you.
I hope you live a happy life,
Full of regret of all the pain you've caused.
Me
