hurt with a side of best intentions

he wants to send a letter
what could it say?
thanks for breaking me
thanks for giving me hope
then running away
thanks for not being strong enough
thanks for ignoring your intuition
thank you ever so much
for flashing those blues to me
in the first place

thanks for going home
and above all
thanks for calling me
one final time
and saying,
"I know."

***I wrote this a loooong time ago, found it in my drafts.

Yeah..."I know" stung.

But that's not what needs to be said. That's not the words on which this should end. It was lovelier than that, more meaningful than that. You know that is the truth. That it was more...and that it was.
