I met someone last week.
He makes me smile,
and I hang off of every word
that comes out of his bearded mouth.
He speaks like poetry
and cares about all of the things
I have been too lazy
to discuss these days.
He has depth
which is hard to find
in people around here.
And he forms legitimate thoughts
and challenges my typical,
simple responses -
daring me to elaborate.
But most importantly
when I'm talking to him
you don't haunt my thoughts
nearly as much as you usually do.
I'm going to try to keep him around.
