i don't like dichotomies
i like nuanced and undefined things
i don't like having to say « you're wrong » and « i am right »
to say « you're evil » and « i'm pure goodness »
but you've hurt me
you've hurt me in ways that make me want to tell you « you fucked up »
you've hurt me in ways that make it hard for me not to play the victim
leaving for you the role of the villain
your apathy as i was silently grieving for the death of our friendship
while i pretended that it was okay for you to do so
i don't like dichotomies
but you set fire to my affection and neglected my compassion
i ignored my reflection for the sake of your attention
so don't go denying how you've hurt me
and how that makes you the villain of my story
