the moon competes with the sun
just like I competed with her long black hair
her piercing eyes that looked like the ocean
and the sky when I would wake up early
I watched the way you looked at her when you thought no one was watching
but I kept an eye out
every time I felt the hairs on my neck stand up
I questioned you about her
you said it was nothing
you told me she was your best
and you’ve known her forever
that nothing would happen
because you knew better
you said you liked her as much as I liked peppers
I used to hate peppers
but I guess things change
I now eat peppers
I’m still getting used to them
and you’re still calling me at 4 AM
asking if I like the taste
and I’m wondering if you really learned to love her
