Life, with me

Asked myself out
Dinner and a movie
Held hands on the way home
Invited myself in for a nightcap
Had great sex
Laid back, lit a smoke
Talked all night long
Had a lot in common
Took myself out a few more times
Sent chocolate
Dedicated a poem to me
Eventually moved in
Was real happy for awhile
But it all became routine
Started doing things I didn't like
Came home late too often
Gave myself shit
Started to argue
Got drunk one night
Beat myself up
Felt real bad about it
But I did it again
Had to get a restraining order
It was pretty much over by then
Lawyers took everything
Thought about suicide
Decided I wasn't worth it
I'm okay now
Moved on with my life
Last week I passed myself on the street
Hardly recognized me
Didn't even say hi
