To —–

So grateful that you let me
figure this out for myself,
even though it meant realizing I stayed
much longer than I should have.
I can’t really know how I’d have felt,
if you’d had to suggest we stop!
I might have been like oh thank goddess.
Or, I might have felt discarded,
abandoned,
no longer wanted.
So letting it be my idea,
was the best thing you could have done.
I appreciate that SO much.
