did i ever mention that you're the brightest light in my day?
that merely a single word from you can turn my sullen face
into a blooming flower of smiles?
because that's what you do to me.
& i just thought you should know.
people amazed me today.
i've spent so many years being jaded & suspicious.
but today... they made me love my career.
today i realized how fortunate i am to be
where i am in life,
because of the people
who helped me get here
& the people who are helping me stay here.
i can never truly express the magnitude
of the transition between
undying cynicism
& eternal gratitude.
so who was really on trial there? was it really i who deserved the inquisition? was i truly the criminal? or was it you, with your rot-evil words & accusations, with your uncertainty, fear & jealousy that you so expertly projected onto me? i'm starting to think, darling, that i should have been judge, jury, & executioner at that one.
