You did me a favor
when you rejected me.
You saved me from
a life I didn't truly want.
I liked the idea of you,
but you weren't right for me.
The illusion was nice,
but the reality is sobering.
I just wanted someone
to love me forever.
I wanted a man to choose me
for the rest of his days.
And despite all my mistakes,
I was lucky enough to find him.
