It's Finally Over!

Well, it's finally over; I got through to him today. I told him
I no longer wanted him and he gave in without his usual
pretense of not knowing that I wanted to end it.
We wished each well and he was off to a new life and to a new
world and as for me, well, let's just say I'm free and I'm happy.
I won't hold any grudges either for being held up for so long. I'll
just sing like a bird and fly.

Still, sometimes I wonder though, why a person would stay
where he is not wanted, but I guess love can do that to a person.
You know, make him or her do that which is unseemly and childish.
I know, because It happened to me in the beginning. I loved and did
unseemly things and girlish things, but time changed all of that.
In the end, all I felt was persistent boredom and a perpetual need
to be free.

I'm released now and I'm just glad that it's over and that it ended on
a nice note. It could have ended like some of those relationships where
a woman's man or a woman's husband kills the woman because she
wanted out, but he wasn't that way, so I have that to be grateful for and
to the good Lord.

He surrendered without his usual fanciful behavior or stern looks and I
couldn't have been more happier than at that moment. I believe I saw
a bit of sadness in his eyes though, but he still acted decently and didn't
recant and neither did I.
