He said a long time ago that he likes Libras the
best. Maybe that’s why
he was with Daniel and not you, He told you
in philosophy class because the professor
hadn’t come in yet and I saw you
trying to forget it. Because you were a
Taurus. It was the day right before finals. Nothing
is as bad as you make them
out to seem. He’s with a Capricorn now. His name
is Adam and sometimes I see them
go into the Smoothie Shack on
Sixth Street together. Their hands are intertwined the same
way your heartstrings are intertwined with hope.
Does he fly out to California to visit you? He must. You’ve
known him for so long. Maybe
that’s why it’s killing you.
