That olive green
Joe Marlin shirt
stole my heart
the second
I saw it
a week before
at the local
Wal-Mart.
I had a feeling
deep in my
innocent,
but wondering
heart
that you and i
would be
something.
I remember
sitting on that
L-shaped couch
thinking how
we’d take the
kidney shaped
coffee table
for our house
one day
and all of the
guns in the basement.
That day
we went mini-golfing,
and I think
I swatted at
your *****
with my club.
We didn’t really
dance that night,
but the Clarks
sang that song
and I should have known ,
that despite the Chilis’ dates,
matching outfits,
baby names,
and **** that made
me love you,
I would be better off without you.
