Emotionless

You taught me how to kill my emotions and move forward.

After doing this, I learned I killed a part of you inside of me because you were my weakness!

You were the center of my emotions.

After killing the imaginary you,

I came to see the real you.

The horrible you.

The disgusting you,

After killing all the emotions inside of me,

I came to know the real you.

You were just an illusory story made up in my mind, and I let you play with my mind for a long time.

Now, I see you are nothing but a vague figure, and I had enough of your mind games!

Now, back off and get lost.

Don’t mess with my freedom.

I am born to rise.

Born to run a marathon,

I owe to no one, and nobody owns me.

No more now, not again.

You were a loser whom I treated like a king, just remember!
