I thank God; I just dumped you!
"sometimes I wonder"

We were lovers.
You and me.
But not anymore.
Stop dreaming.
Don't try to fix it.
Stop hopping.
Stop being nice.
We were an item.
Not anymore.
We are no longer together.
We were lovers.
Not again.
This is not a joke.
It's real.
We have broken up.
I wasn't sure what would happen.
I got over you a long time ago.
I'm glad we're separated.
You assumed I would stick around.
Watch as I walk away.
I'm leaving you and your ego behind.
I'm ready to run as fast as I can.
I do not want to look back at all.
Sometimes, I wonder.
Why didn't I dump you then?
I thank God; I just dumped you!

Sometimes walking away is the best thing we can do for ourselves! Loved your poem!
Nicely written mate
Beautiful work Gloria.
Sad but beautiful! I love it!
I could be wrong, but did you mean "hoping" instead of "hopping?" Overall, this is a fantastic poem! Great job!!
