I was asked today

"you're a senior,
right?"

no,
no,
no

I said
chuckling

"Wait,
really?"

yes,
yes,
yes

really.

I repeated,
glowing.


"well I'd never had
guessed,
the way you took
charge
and all
that."

I was silent

thanks

I said

"your welcome"

he said

and I stood there
in the afternoon
sun thinking about
the things I can do
