Half Forgetting That I Even Wrote To You At All

I’m half expecting you to read this, half expecting you to throw it away first chance you get, oblivious to the fact that I have written so much more than I have shown you.



Of us and amusement parks. Chili dogs and goldfish. Enjoying,

more so, being free – half wishing we weren’t.



If you knew the reason I was late so many times,

that someone else loved me, I know now you never would’ve taken me as yours.



I was an hour late this time, and on the way home we joked about

all the excuses I’ve given you… and all the ones you don’t believe.
