It Would Take You A While to Figure This One Out!

Hmm.
I finally got him.
Finally,
Thoroughly,
Exquisitely,
I got him.
And he didn't even know what hit him.
He didn't even know he gave in.
He didn't know that I was now on the offensive,
and he was now defensive,
and he didn't even know it.

Finally, finally,
I won the battle.
I beat him at his own game.
I put that boy to shame.
Though no one really knows
except me and my own heart.
And I'll celebrate well,
though we are now apart.

No one will notice
that I am no longer tied
to that which was was my fancy
and with that, I sigh.
No one will know
why I'll smile and smirk
when he passes by,
but I will know why.

And great satisfaction
now comes upon me.
For I used to be preoccupied,
thinking quite incredulously.
But now, a new season,
with new reason, arises.
And I am quite ready
for new and welcome surprises.

He will go his way,
and I will, yes!, go mine.
And he may look back over here
with introspection and time.
But I will be far off
on the waves of a distant sea.
And though he may try to return,
he'll never regain me.

But for now, I bask
in what I've done.
I sit and think on who I've become.
I take joy and jest in my life ahead
while he is still idle,
though he knows it not.

Oh life,
you are a silly thing!
