An Open Letter to My Addiction

Spoiler Alert: It's over.

I'm breaking up with you,

and we are never, ever getting back together.

You are full of empty promises and sweet nothings,

you take without giving,

you've never cared about my well-being.

So I'm done.

Done with the loneliness, the hurt, the deceit,

and every painful thing you've ever put me through.

I've finally realized that I can't have

anything

else

when I'm with you.

I want to live life without constant pain and misery,

away from your mission to bring out the worst in me.

Hand in hand with you,

I turned my back on my family

and everyone else who truly cares about me.

For these reasons,

and

so

many

more...

We're done.

Don't call me anymore.

Sincerely,

Mickey.

P.S. It's you, not me.
