It's a damn good thing that I don't like you anymore,
or else that might have hurt.
It's a DAMN good thing you didn't take my chemistry
class, or else I don't know what I would have done.
I know a good thing when I see one,
and you just don't happen to be
A. Good. Thing.
Ha, not - even - CLOSE!
It's a good thing I made the calculations and determined
that you were no longer in my future- near OR distant.
It's a good thing that- after how long? Four years? -
I realized that you weren't what my heart was seeing.
Now that I'm seeing with my BRAIN
I can tell you you're NOT good.
-NOT- a. Good. Thing.
Not - by - far.
It really is a good thing that you told me straight out,
or else I might've said something stupid which was on the tip of my tongue,
and it really IS a good thing that you wasted the chance I hadn't decided to give tonight, or else I might have decided to give you more.
But your chances are up,
and that really is...
...a good thing.
I really hope.
It's been a really long time since my options have been so limited, so narrowed,
and I'm hoping it's a good thing.
Maybe the eggs have been waiting to be in one basket, and this fear is irrational,
hopefully this is a good thing.
But you know that Nine years are double edged,
and not always good things.
But I have hope.
And -that- IS a good thing.
Author notes
Okay, so this was written New Year's day (technically) and it has to do with a few things that were said to me that kinda made me feel like chopped liver. Before something else had happened I liked the person who said these things, and then this night I just decided to give this person another chance, I guess because I'm not used to only liking one person, and there was only one person left on my list after him (my Chemistry, if that helps anyone). But, as I was about to tell him something which I maybe shouldn't have (and I didn't, thank GOD) he said something that made it painfully, but gratefully obvious that he had zero interest in me, and he insisted that I also had zero in him. That would have been fine, but there was another comment made later and... yeah. Unnecessary. So... the result is this. Happy fucking New Year.
:O?

Kelsey! I is confused, is this about "chemistry" or...hyperactive maniac? Or someone else?
I'm generally more interested in what a poem says rather than the poetic-ness, but poetic-ness wise it is good lol
Tell me what happened!

hmmm
honestly its good. its cute, in an angry way. but you almost sound like you wrote this to convince yourself of something. i like the write. and i think that you'll see in the next couple yrs that some shit doesnt matter, but "chemistry" always will.
keep writing. we need some good older poets in the next few yrs.

Haha, it was kind of meant to sound like that. I like things like that for some reason. I dunno, I'm strange. Thanks for the review =]
