I'll Survive! - Two Word Challenge

I'll Survive!

I truly thought it would be an unexpected pleasure when we bumped into each other after all these years. You wanted a second chance and after all our secrets kept, I was more than ready to give you one. Yes, I may be an idiot, but I thought you'd changed and wanted to be my friend.

Little did I know that you still lived in your fantasy world, pretending that you had a fairytale life, when you truly lived in total despair, coupled with many dark hours. People like you need to take your troubles out on others.

How was I to know you were again using me, that this was but a temporary situation, instead of the renewed and mature relationship that I'd expected from you? You took my life and with one calculated act, and an ominous pause, told lies that to this day, taunt me.

You had the nerve, the gall, to tell me to dream on, as if I had any dreams left! I live out my days in quiet desperation while you, YOU, you'll survive. Your kind always does, so just go back to your fake fairytale life!

But, dream on, you witch, because this you won't like, I'll survive!
