With us,
It was simple.
It was peaceful.
Thank you.
For being what I needed.
When I didn’t deserve it.
You were close
But that only counts in
Horseshoes
And hand grenades.
I blew us up
Because I knew you
Weren’t the one.
If there was anyone
I would have settled for.
I would be nestled
Next you right now.
I’m glad we fell short,
Because we found
So much more.
I hope you’re as happy
As I am today.
Love,
Your second place.
I am to be
Far more than I am.
Maybe that why
I disappoint everyone I love
(Or maybe just myself)
The most.
