Today started just as any other day, with a fresh pot of coffee and an unhealthy helping of anger and disappointment. I've learned to relish in these feelings you have toward me. Knowing full and well that wearing your emotions on your sleeve as you do, reveals more about you than me. Despite my best efforts to be who you wanted me to be, I am reminded day after day how much better she is than me. My favorite lipstick and best jeans are embarrassing in comparison to her looks and wit.
You walk out the door and shout "Best eat that lunch yourself, I can't risk getting mustard on my shirt."
You never miss an opportunity to minimize me. I never forget every word and every emotion. As they say, when life gives you lemons, don't forget the poison.
