I'm Done

I'm Done

That’s it
I’m done
I’m going to keep smiling now
I’m going to laugh and kiss
People I like
No, I won’t love them
Love is stupid
And school is almost over
I’m going to be able to start anew soon
I’ll wait until then.

And I’m going to show you
How much you’re missing out
You’re so unlucky
You should have loved me when you had the chance.

Yes, you are my first love
Yes, I may still love you
But I’m going to lie
Because, honestly, I don’t care anymore
I’m going to find someone else
And you’re going to be sorry.

You’re going to see me in the halls
Smiling and laughing
With boys
And girls
And you’re going to think
What was I thinking?
Yes, you will
I’ll make sure of it
Because, baby, you’re missing out
On the greatest thing that you have ever seen.

So, no
This isn’t a poem
That I’m crying over as I write
No, I’m not smiling either
But I’m taking this opportunity
To start doing just that.
