to my ex

i hope your heart aches

i hope your heart aches at moments when

you are supposed to feel content.

i hope moments linger in the

back of your head, and they won’t leave

no matter how much weed

you smoke.

i hope every time you hear that dumb

song,

your heart stops and you’re frozen

for a second,

and she asks what is wrong.

i hope it hurts to hear my name,

any mention makes you flinch

and i hope it’s hard to bring up the

things that your past self did.

i hope you try to avoid it,

but know that you can’t.

and the truth comes out when

you didn’t plan it.

i hope the autumn leaves and the cool

air

make the nostalgia so hard to bare

i hope one day you miss me

and realize i’m nowhere to be found

it took you way too long,

the thoughts of you for me are

6 feet buried in the ground.

i want to wish you all the best,

say forgive & forget.

but the things i don’t truly

feel,

are better left unsaid.
