I really think that I'm ok
although he broke my heart.
Don't deserve his cold denial,
I'll make a brand new start.

I've beat my head against the wall,
I've screamed upon the floor,
I've cried a tear filled gallon,
it has become a bore.

Today I'll write a little bit,
and then I'll make a plan.
Tomorrow is another day
to find a better man.


From Scarlett to Rhett, circa 2000

Excellent Cat!!!

This is exactly what you should do. . . make a new start. . . you should put this one on your wall, or next to a mirror that you see every day. . . just to remind yourself of it. . .

Great poem!!!

"Tomorrow is a another day
To find a better man"

And this time, he will understand
The treasure he holds in two hands
The jewel that's me.

Sounds like an excellent plan to me!!!  Good for you, Scarlett couldn't have said it better herself   Gotta love it!!!!
