I seriously don’t care
Whether your boy broke up with you.
Whether you think life is the worst thing that could ever have happened to you.
Whether he is your love and life and all that crap.
I seriously don’t care
If you resolve to chase after a fleeting desire,

Because it’s stupid.
Hear me?
Stupid.

Stupid, because you don’t seem to get
That this is a childhood infatuation,
Maybe lust in bad cases,
Maybe boredom in others,
But eventually it’s all the same.
A childhood “love” that will be nipped in the bud
Because you both are more naïve than
The people areound you who have never “been taken”
“hooked up”
or “dated”.

Stupid.
Hear me?

Why are you whining and sniffling
About the guy that
“ruined your life”,
About the boy that
“broke my heart”
or
“cheated on me (that bastard)”?
You told me you hated him with your whole being and would
Try to get revenge any way you could.
All I can do is smack my forehead
And whisper something about immaturity.


...Furthermore, why are you still whoring his memory

(You know, the memory of the guy you oh-so-dearly hate)

When clearly you won’t be in contact with him
After you move up a grade?
When you don’t even know his current email? (Like that's worth anything.)


Sometimes
I have to put up with girls
Who dump their guys
And the day after
Start trying to cry on my shoulder
Because “they thought he was the one”.
I restrain myself from screaming
'GET A LIFE. It’s over. Finis. Done.'
Can you stop being so silly? It’s your fault
And you did the leaving, remember?
Don’t get mad at me
Because you know I had nothing to do with it.
I just tried to rip that blindfold off of your face,
The one stained with needless tears from endless wells of self-pity.

You could at least wipe your face and move on.
To another guy?
I don't care.
As long as you don't come running to me when it's your fault.


You know what?
If you resist me and ignore my advice,
Flinging it over your shoulder in careless haste,

I will hunt you down.
I will disown you out of pure frustration, then
I will scream in your ears until they bleed
Unless you get the message:
“You’re too young.”

Do you comprehend me?

I don’t care about this 'love'
Because you weren’t meant to be together at this age.
Because you aren’t going to continue this relationship past this grade.
Because you are currently incapable of reason and common sense.
Because, overall, I care more about you than your love life
And if you’re damaged by it
I’ll try to play Cynic and open your eyes to what really happened.

Silly stupid girl, we’re trying to protect you.
Are you too insensitive to see that?
Are you having too much fun throwing yourself into fake pits of despair
And self-produced illusions
To figure out what we’re doing?


I hate you
Because nothing I try works.
You’re still deaf.
Detach the earplugs and the blindfold.
Listen,
And open your damned eyes for once.

Silly girl. We’re trying to protect you.
