Inspiration Best Thing by Inayah

Friends. I thought you were mine.

If only I’d known that when I was drowning and hoping for sympathy.

But all you gave was a response of dismissal.

Dismissal is exactly what this is. I have dismissed you as a friend in my life.

The hurt I’m experiencing,

I’m taking it all in

Because I will not feel this way for you again.

And it hurts, but I let it

I let it ‘cause I needed that pain

But I wanted to feel it, needed to.

‘Cause it’ll teach me not to go back there again

“I have better shit to do” from Inayah’s song, Best Thing.

The phrase, “the best thing I did for me,” is my new mantra.

Today’s latest casualty solidified that each one served their purpose.
