You'Re Welcome

I seen the potential in you when they didn't, I knew what you were capable of, I envisioned you as a queen, helped you to realize your worth when you were blind to it and inclined your self esteem, complimented your beauty and motivated you to complete your goals, dreams to acknowledge your pain and did my best to not treat you the same as they had done, showed you the true definition of a gentleman, and let you witness a one of a kind love, I was there when no one else was, others would turn their back, not me, I never gave up, because I believed in you the most, I felt as if you were still trying to grow and be better even after all that you been through, so I never lost hope, a cheerleader, me, minus the skirt, It was all about you, I told you that time after time, but I must admit I'm proud of how far you've come and what you've accomplished, you won the race that many don't even attempt. The fear of failure gets the best of them, although now it seems as if I am no longer a part of your team, someone else is now the MVP, but you go girl you keep on going, I knew you could do it my support stops for nothing, and I appreciate the opportunity you have given me, peace, love and God bless... Oh, and thanks for leaving me behind!

Laughing - a sarcastic little "hook" there at the end. Hope it doesn't keep you from helping someone else. Welcome to PS.

Wow - sounds like quite the one-way investment. I really like the tone of the poem throughout. We kinda saw it coming but kudos for the extra graceful ending. Sometimes we invest in people that don't particularly deserve it. But it's good for karma. Well done, Larry.
