I have the house to myself,

and the AC is humming

Just looking outside I can feel

the heat hitting the blacktop

All I can think about this holiday

is when I confided in a high school

friend and told her that I am sad 

about “_______”; which is ironic

Because years later, I am still 

blue over “_______.” I guess 

you can say that when I kissed

“_______” for the very first time,

there were fireworks going off inside

me. The last time we kissed just a couple

There’s nothing to be afraid of

I want to know you.

What are you waiting for?

You understand how I feel

Tell me what to do.

I’ll relieve the tension you feel

You’d be surprised what’s physically possible

I sit here and think,

about last years new years drink.

It seems that time has passed us in a blink,

I’ll miss the sound of our glasses as they clink

You used to tell me “we’re so in-sync”

When I was in the first grade, we were tasked with writing our own bios for the yearbook.

They gave us some prompts to help us out.

“I’m special because…”

I wrote:

“I’m special because I like ice cream.”

Which is true, I’ve always had a sweet tooth.

When I was in the twelfth grade, I fell for a girl who lived near the train tracks.

She said:

“Don’t be silly, we’ll come back.”

Which is true, cause years later, we did.

I’m glad we were just idiot-kids.

She’s sweeter than ice cream

Hotter than a kettles steam;

Richer than vanilla bean.

Then one day out the blue,

We both just grew and grew…

The other day, I bought a pint of Ben and Jerry’s, Chocolate Therapy.

I have sitting in my freezer,

You, in Jacksonville, while;

Me, in Philadelphia, currently;

It was 60 degrees in the city today,

Despite it being December,

I still think about the end of November.

Onto a new year, or whatever -

Onto the next endeavor.

I wish we were still kids, so I could ask your

mom if you would come out and play.

We’d spend the whole day!

Together, forever, or whatever.

I hope the sunny state made you smile

Write back to me soon,

it’s been a while.

People are mean,

People are scary,

People are:

Big

Fat

Stupid

and

Hairy.

People are cruel,

People are cool,

People are:

Tools

Fools

and

Ghouls.

Sometimes,

Too cool for school.

You’re blessed if

you find someone,

who makes you feel
