The Truth Behind the Poem:
Friends can break your heart too, and friendship breakups can hurt as worse than some romantic ones. “Miss Me With It” is a unfiltered poem about ending a toxic friendship, walking away from betrayal, and reclaiming self-respect. Written in Axton’s own jagged, concrete style, this poem shows how letting go of someone who used you isn’t weakness by any stretch. But is a show of one’s power. If you’re searching for poems about toxic friendships, cutting ties, or healing through poetry, this one’s for you. You can even send it to your toxic ex. My reason for writing it doesn’t have to be your reason for resonating with it.
