i see him everyday
walking around like a stray puppy.
where are your friends?
where is that boy I fell in love with?
that happy-football loving-joyous-gorgeous boy?

my heart s h a t t e r s
every time he walks to class by himself
& when he's with that stupid older girl.
why did you do that?

i know he loved me.
i know he only plays football to please his father.
i know he is this way because of his childish parents.

I KNOW HIM BETTER THAN ANYONE

and you know what?
that's a **** shame,
i miss that boy that i once had memorized.
