The Greatest Gift.

Three years later and you're still just the same. Silly little human.

The greatest thing you ever gave me

wasn't the expensive diamond ring.

Not the love notes or the drawings,

shoes or clothes or paid for things.

No, the greatest gift you gave me

came not with "I love you."

The greatest gift you gave me

came when you told me we were through.

The tears I spent thereafter

were just wasted ones indeed.

Because to see what you've become

shows that you aren't anything that I need.

You always have a way to piss me off

and still you succeed

with your narcississtic comments

and the judgemental ways you creed.

Despite it all, the mess you make

and how you treat me like you do.

I do not revoke the time we spent

because there's significance - hard but true.

Not only did I realize

the type of man that I do not need

but you led me straight God - the ultmiate gift;

I thank you, I do indeed.
