I will never

I don’t care about your lies
They don’t hurt me
I don’t care about your pain
It doesn’t affect me
I don’t care about your stories
They’re never true

I don’t miss the sound of your voice
It hurt my ears
I don’t miss your arms around me
They couldn’t hold me tight enough
I don’t miss your sense of humor
You could never make me laugh

I hate your big brown eyes
They were too far apart
I hate the way you smelled
It was far too strong
I hate the way you said sorry
Before you committed suicide
I will never forgive you

I was inspired to write this poem after reading Stanley Kunitz's "The Portrait".
