Thanks For Leaving. It Was Great!

Thanks for leaving when I needed you most Thanks for showing me that we weren't that close Thanks for going back on everything you said Thanks for telling me that you wished you were dead It was great how you said that you wish you had lied It was great that you didn't care how much i'd cried It was great when you laughed and brushed me away It was great when you made it clear that you wouldn't stay I love that knowing how I can't rely on you I love that you leave me so you can start anew I love that even now you'll still ask me for help I love that you manage to continue to whelp I'll sit back and smile at my false pretense I'll sit back and smile at my constant defence I'll sit back and smile at the days that I lost I'll sit back and smile but at quite a cost
