Living Well

A Poem by Tori

They say it's the best revenge.

I can almost guarantee
That next time you see me
I will be happy
And you'll wish you could be the same.
Your smile hasn't come out for a while
And I used to really miss it
Because it lit up my whole life.
But I found more light than I could imagine
Standing with me the whole damn time
While you ran away
And then ran back
And repeatrepeatrepeat.
Next time you run back and
Try to give me that shining smile
I won't see it.
I won't take it.
And I definitely will not take you back.

Live your life and I'll live mine
The way I want to.
And I'll be happy and you'll be blue.
When I laugh, is it at you?

Maybe it is. You'll never know.
