Ginger, seeing as how you mentioned past relationships ...here's a poem I wrote a few years ago which I've just revamped, it seems fitting
Makeover
Since you told me it was over My days with you were through I’ve had a complete makeover And here’s my full report to you. I’ve lost some 20 lbs, ya’ know Just can’t find where I put ‘em. I learned an ancient martial art And origami too. I joined a local YMCA This helps to keep me buff. I run for miles, can’t seem to stop And haven’t lost my lunch. I found the Lord while on my knees He was right there under the couch! I go to church and praise his name And pay my tithes, of course. I read and write cosmic poetry And do Karaoke on the side. I’ve found a therapist with comfy chairs And made friends a mile wide Women seem to like me too Don’t know what that one’s all about But I take what life will give to me And no longer seem to doubt. So life is now a joy to behold An adventure right out of the blue So recently it occurred to me Why the hell would I need you?
