As I sit here with a hangover from pride and devious assumptions; I see where my downfall began-
University Café at 8:24 pm: I saw the way she looked at you- a second too long with a twinkle in her eye. I could have sworn you gazed longingly back, but I gave you the benefit of the doubt. You told me she was a study partner from class, so I dropped the subject of the matter.
Your dorm room at 12:37 am I thought I would surprise you with a late night gift, but I was the one surprised seeing “her” there. You claimed you both were just studying and talking about absolutely nothing, but how could I believe that? I refused to be the fool.
Your friends dorm room at 12:52 am I sensed the way he looked at me behind your back. I cried on his shoulder; loosening him up with my seductive skullduggery. I then let him consume in your late night surprise.
Present 1:13 pm My assumptions have departed, but guilt has risen in its place. You rush for me still trying to reconcile last night’s misunderstanding, and I finally see your truth; but I’m too ashamed to divulge mines to you.
Skullduggery - deceitful behavior
We've all made an *** out of ourselves from making assumptions before, but what happens when you act on those assumptions ruining something that could've been.
