Thank You

Thank you for the parting gift

Another dagger in the heart

As I shut the door

On something that meant so much

Exactly what I needed

From someone that I used to know

But you’re not them anymore

And I’m not who I was then, either

Your cold and bitter comments

Cut me free from everything

I’m glad to see what you’ve become

Locked in your little world

Circle your wagons tight

And divorce yourself from reality

As you fling your insults

I’ll just wish you well

And walk away for good

I have my own sins to own up to

Maybe you should face yours, too

But I’ll judge not for your transgressions

I’m too busy picking up

The pieces I’ve left my life in

To worry about you and yours

And what you might fling my way
