I am so happy that you did not come back begging,
I am so happy I let you go.
I am glad that I had to go through the worst of you,
For that I am stronger than before you.
I have learned the greatest lesson of all,
Being independent is my best feature.
I have learned so much about myself,
I no longer need your advice or acceptance.
I hear you found out the grass is not greener on the other side,
Now you are stuck, by the way, it’s your own doing.
I waited for two decades, and I am so happy we never went down that road,
I think of you often and sometimes you are in my dreams.
I no longer have to take your abuse,
I’m so happy I never have to explain myself to you.
I am so happy that you went astray with her,
Because when you do it again, it will be all on her.
Taking you back was the worst mistake I had ever made,
But it ended with the most incredible outcome.
