This is a "Fuck You"

Courtney Birst-Wyrick

This one's for you Kelly and your narcissistic ways.
For your holier-than-thou attitude,
for every condescending word
you ever uttered to me.
For making me feel like a slut.
even though you had no problem fucking me for six months.
This is a "fuck you"
for every back rub I ever gave,
even though my own back ached.
For every time I just wanted you to
let me cry instead of lecturing me.
For caring about you and wanting more from you than just casual sex and a friendship.
For letting myself get used by you.
This is a "fuck you"
for being made feel inferior to you.
For not holding me when I was alone.
For me standing by your side
even when you deserted mine.
This is a "fuck you"
for giving my all to you when you gave
so little in return.
For laying in your bed on Sunday mornings and listening to you talk about other women.
This is a "fuck you"
for when you wanted to be
my therapist, my savior, my hero, my legend.
My everything and nothing.
This is a "fuck you"
for when you ended our friendship
for your own selfish reasons.
This is my final "fuck you."
