He Left You Finally.... Poem by RIC BASTASA

when we were at your party
he was there and you humiliated him

no brakes for a very fast car
though he avoided a collision
the damage however was done
it was deeply humiliating

you thought you can dispense
about what he is and your future
now that he is gone
why are you crying?

when a glass is broken it is broken
and there is no repair possible
at least that is what a man's ego
is all about

the house is big and the emptiness
is never contained
your cries are spread like a ripple
of the river to the ocean

now you will be alone in grief
if you ask me this is my answer:

you deserve it. Congratulations.
