I Am Glad Poem by Randy McClave

I am glad that I never ended up with her
I am so glad that future never did occur,
Though I always enjoyed her being at my side
But, I knew that soon would come the tide.

I didn't like the way that she shouted and cursed
And how in everyone she always saw the worse,
And I didn't like the way that she kept continually drinking
Not once was she ever spiritually thinking.

I didn't like how she never paid back what she owed
And how she never cared about the seeds that she sowed,
I knew what she said couldn't be believed or trusted
And I knew that sooner or later, she would be busted.

I didn't like how that she smoked pot
And with her I didn't want to be ever seen or caught,
I thought that she would be a fun and exciting date
As I was hoping in her to find my true soul mate.

I didn't like how about me she never did truly care
Even though she was in my every thought and prayer,
I really once thought that with her I was in love
But, when she had friends and family around, she never knew who I was.

I am so glad that I am still smiling and writing
Instead of worrying or judging or spending and fighting,
I am now so happy and cheerful for her greatest favor
I am glad that her and I never ended up together.
