I Just Might Be Glad You Took Him, Good Luck

Sometimes, when a relatioship ends, we feel so destroyed, but there is always usually good that comes out in the ending

When he said he wanted a divorce

My tears left me hoarse

For the months I only functioned through

My friends gave me support,

making good points of this marriage abort

Then, he showed up on my doorstep out the blue

I guess you don’t want to see me,

like a dumbass I “ excitedly said, “ Of course, I do.”

Together back into the house we had shared

Years of laughs, tears and hard work

Soon it came apparent the games had not stopped  

To the bar, where he met you, with his friends, behind my back, me he mocked

A phone call came, he couldn’t tell me face to face

I’ve found another love, tonight she’s moving in

All I can say now, is good luck, you can have all the muck

You may think you have a great catch, you think your so in love

A perfect match from heaven’s above

Wait a couple of years you’ll be wondering what you saw

You'll see what I went thru, my emotions, self confidence mauled

You’ll know the reasons why I left, you’ll realize the lies

You’ll be disgusted how to close the family ties

When the time comes, you’ll realize the truth

He only needed a babysitter, so he could do, what

smucks like him do

I can’t say, I won’t say, I told you so,

I will tell you, You lost a good friend,

You knew I was living in that house, when he was out with you

I am still wondering how you can lay your head on the same pillow I did.

Just the night before, and you wonder why I call you a whore  

Yes, he did break my heart, shatter my dreams

For only a little while, but it was for the good of me

For the man, I now have, a heart at least I didn’t destroy

I can hold my head up high,

in a virgin bed, I don’t have to wonder  

he was free and clear, with honesty a life we can share

Now I can live and breathe.

Sadly, the theme that you write of in these verses is all too common in this world/life. Betrayal is a horrible thing to have to go through. I do love the ending of your poem and the attitude that you exhibit therein. Thank you. Love and best wishes to you,

Regis

Epiphany by Gary Stephens

“We’re going to use nine megaton warheads in space and we’re not sure they’re large enough to be effective. Why would you even consider using kiloton-range surface-to-air warheads as back-up?” The answer was succinct. “Because they’re all we have.”

Nicky Nails Rocci will be New York’s Godfather even if it kills him. Bulletproof MoJo Johnson won’t let a little thing like death stand in the way.
