Thank You...

...a lesson learned
...one lesson less...

...you call it fair...
for me it caused
great distress...

...I searched and 
searched for compromise...

...instead I have decided to
rest...

I am beyond such drama...
myself my spirit this is valued...
way more...trusted...

...less complex...

...this validity has been exposed...
to you in your eyes
 I am not full worth...

...initially this truly hurt...
you're without a loyal thought...

...for I have risen through the 
ranks...executed everything
you've and every other asked... 

...and more...

...yesterday my spirit closed
this door...not ever to venture
back...

I have my candle lit e...
no longer in the dark...

...for I now know how
and what you think...

...I stride on the success
of my own spark...

...thank you...
...for waking this spirit
up...
