Second Chances
I went to the Zubar the other night to see Joel, I didn't tell him I was comming.
When I saw him, he saw me and no words were spoken - we were us. Together.
I told him I hated him, he said "I am madly in love with you."
We kissed. He told me to wait a second and went to talk to someone who was calling for him.
I left.
The next night he showed up at my house, drunk and bitching about having to drive all the way here from the city.
I took his keys and made him get in the passenger seat. He professed, I listened. We bickered and laughed, listened to music, stopped by Arthur's place and then I took myself home.
We did not say goodbye.
He called me on his way home. He is no good for me. Our lives do not mesh, they never have.
Once again I am trying not to miss him, to think about him. I invited this on myself.
He wants me to meet his friends. He talks like we will see each other often.
I think I may start looking for a job in Colorado, or Arizona. Maybe Washington.
Go west young (wo)man.
