Dear Cigarette (Part III),
this month, it has been six years since we parted ways.
I know the decision was pretty one-sided, but I never regretted (forcefully) slamming the door in your face. Back then, you did everything you could to make me come back to you; to – at least – reconsider leaving so abruptly, but fortunately, your arguments were never quite strong enough.
I do not miss you.
There were times when I missed you dearly, but those days have long been erased from my memory.
It is better this way. I do not say that I never enjoyed your company – there were days when you were the only one there to comfort me. You know how it is though – we grow and move on. I am certain you found someone new.
I hope we will never see each other again.
I do not need you anymore.
Sincerely,
The One Who Stayed Away
