Thank You (For Leaving My Life) Thank you for leaving my life
Never to open the door of nostalgia again
For I/'/ve learned that to do so only brings grief
And what I/'/m really in need of now is relief

Remember the boy who I grew to miss
Well it/'/s better that I forget he exists
For when we went down that road we thought we/'/d kindle friendship anew
But all I did was mourn, cry over the thing I had to do

And if I ever tried to do the same
With you I know that I/'/d be put to shame
Cuz when I look at you I see a boy that/'/s still drawn to me

And though I miss the bond that we first shared
Reinforcing it wouldn/'/t show that I care
For I would want to walk down memory lane
And cause trouble that would make both of us go insane

So thank you for letting me be
Now I realize that you were trying to set me free
And when I didn/'/t want to let go
You used your wisdom and showed me that it was the only way to go

So now that I have truly moved on
I can be grateful for the way you had gone
So let me thank you now after all this time
For knowing virtue was much more worth it than trying to be mine

Thank you for leaving my life
And proving to me this decision was right

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
