HE SAID-
Ever since I first met you
I always thought that you were great
I want a chance to be with you
I think you and I should date!
Let's get together and make a deal
In the dark that no one knows
A secret promise for just me and you
So...here's how it goes:
Let's say we're dating- the 2 of us
We'll "hang out" when we're on our own
But in public- we're just friends
It's unofficial- lets keep this on the down low.
I also wanna date other people
but its okay, don't feel left out
I need to date as much as possible
To see what life is all about.
I hope you don't mind if I ignore you
When I'm with my friends
I assume you're not bothered by the fact
That I'm holding some other girl's hands.
You can call me as much as you want
But I probably won't pick up my phone
I'll say I'm too busy with my own life
Or I've been out late and I just got home.
I prefer talking to you in person
Because, my dear, its much easier
To make YOU feel guilty, I know your weakness
Is quick forgiveness of others.
Don't worry so much, everything will work out
Calm down; relax, we've come this far
I am what I am; take it or leave it
I can care less what this does to your young heart.

Can't you see me sitting here?
On this street corner
year upon year
you see me here everyday
yet, never throw
a word my way
No
One source...
Beneath this flowing stream of words
beyond perception's reach
inspired thoughts spew from a spring
like shells

Even this poem or rambling won't reveal much about me,
