A Break-up Letter I wrote for a class exercise about 2 years ago. Found it and thought it was kind of funny.
“Dear Cigarettes,
You are the best and the worst thing that ever happened to me. I have realized that there is no beneficial factor for me along with my degrading health when I’m with you. I thank you for being there for me when I needed a break apart from this harsh world, when I needed a breath of fresh air during breaks... But I cant do this anymore.
I have been pondering about this for quite some time, and I think now is the perfect time. After I kiss you and your fellow roommates goodbye, please don’t ever appear in my life in any other identities like Camel Crush or Malboro.
I do not see this relationship being a mutually beneficial one especially since I am spending money for 2-3 minutes of pleasure and to slowly kill me.
Your love is too toxic.
I am leaving you.
Bye,
Sincerely, Ella”
