You remember cotton candy
Cheated kisses
Awkward smiles
The midnight call
At nine PM
Words of love:
"So you wanna?"

You remember writing notes
Hoping for
Some inspiration
Her bubbling words
No depth in them
Words of passion:
"I've got to go."

You remember how she talked
To all of them
How she smiled
At all of them
How it faded
Turned to you
Words of promise:
"I have plans"

You remember disbelief
Long to walk
Alone at night
On the street
Where she lives
Like before the
Words of joy:
"I don't love you.
God I'm sorry".
For a boy who loves me.

The world looks different from this side of the fence.

Title inspired by [link] obviously.

This whole thing won't stop niggling at me, and if I talk about it any more I'll sound like a self-centered jerk. So. Poetry for catharsis. Nobody let him read this, okay?
