Letter to the Ex


I’m letting go of the pieces of you that fill my memory.  Just this morning I tossed away a bag of our things, just the way that you think that I tossed you out.  Christmas cards, letters of apology from you, movie ticket stubs – emotional and physical litter that I parted with bittersweetly.


It’s sad to think that I have to part with pieces of myself to get rid of you, but it is far better to pay that price than to see you spread throughout this apartment.  It’s better to get rid of pieces of my history than to have your face hiding in photo albums and your handwriting lurking about in unsuspecting folders and boxes.


I threw them away, just the way that you think that I threw you away.  If only they had made a case against themselves the way that you did.

    The truth of it all was that we were just not right for eachother. You should have thrown that stuff away a long time ago.

    We are both much happier now.

    Just don’t treat Gray like you did me.

  8. Hey dumbass, get a clue will ya? 

    I swear, I really don’t understand how this boy even exists.

    Jason, go bother Faith or your mom with your star wars toys and let the adults talk now.

    If you are good, you might get a chocolate easter bunny…..

    Land of donkeys and goat cheese…. Geezus.

    (to everyone else— Hello!)
