the revenge you

the revenge you is the

prettiest.

 

downright

fucking

gorgeous,

the revenge you

is the one who has been working out since the

breakup---

she has slimmed down and fits so snug into those

tight jeans,

that she makes mouths water

as she makes her way down the sidewalk to work.

 

the revenge you is the one whose hair is a completely different style now---

for you’ve taken the time to research, to get hip, to make it the sexiest

that you can possible muster,

and the revenge you

is the one who has scored a perfume that

makes men cry

when they come in contact with it

as you pause to stretch,

or make conversation in the morning.

 

the revenge you

has been waiting,

for you know that due to the close proximity that you live to him &

the fact that he knows your schedule, where you work, etc.,

inevitably,

you will see each other again &

when you do,

the revenge you will get to rub his face in it---

that which he can never have again,

that which he left &

having not improved on his own,

now wants even more than before.

 

the revenge you is

so much more attractive,

than you have ever been,

because on top of it all,

you’ve come to the conclusion that you no longer need him---

you’ve come to the conclusion that time with him was wasted &

that the future holds more for you

than it ever will for him,

because you have had your revenge &

it is

ever

so

sweet.
