There was so much good in you I drank you in Until I finished the cup And was satisfied. I breathed you in deep Just so I could feel the burn Of the air I took in To remind me of you. My greatest victory was in patience: Waiting for myself to be ready And finally knowing When not to wait.

My Greatest Victory
There was so much good in you I drank you in Until I finished the cup And was satisfied. I breathed you in deep Just so I could feel the burn Of the air I took in To remind me of you. My greatest victory was in patience: Waiting for myself to be ready And finally knowing When not to wait.
