POEME: It's ALL Good

It's ALL Good

I wanted a future 
with you in it.

You wanted one 
with me out of it.

You won.  
Congratulations.

-

What are you upset about, 
now that I have nothing left 
to talk to you about?

-

Victories 
are often not 
what we want them to be. 
Mine may have been the same. 

And if I were to be miserable anyway, 
good, that you have your victory. 
I can live with my misery 
either way, 
but I could not have compensated 
for your misery 
with my victory.  

You can. 

So,
good.
