I wrote this poem in July of 2024.

it wasn’t until today I realized how ordinary you really were
It wasn’t that you were ever that interesting or special
It was me with my lovergirl delusional glasses
refusing to see past what was in front of me
Seeing and getting caught up in fantasies
of who you could be
when really you were, the most ordinary of men
not malicious, not especially intelligent
not really helpful
just kind of existing without any spark
without anything that would make me
look twice at you now

What a great realization! When the statues come tumbling down.

I recognise this realisation myself. Thankfully, it was a lesson well learned. Great poem, thank you for sharing it (and the meme, which is so accurate)!
