Lexi grabs my hand.
Maggie is making out with a boy in a patch of ivy.
I am crying-
but not really.
Leaning against a tree.

The tree Amanda and I pissed on to be closer to nature-
to pretend that we weren’t really here.
But I am
and Lexi grabs my hand

“Want to go home?”
pathetic nodding.

In the car we are quiet,
the driver looks at my bloody knees.
Where I had fallen before-
trying to find Lexi.
Lexi in her bubble gum pink wig.
I wish she was still holding my hand.

Upstairs we cook,
1. boil water
2. add pasta
3. cut and add:
tomatoes
carrots
apples
onions
grapes
4. season with-
dill
parmesan
sea salt

We watch Amelie
We don’t need the subtitles
but we use them anyways.

We eat our pasta
And drink water with grapes in it.

It reminds me of home.
I want her to hold my hand again,
Instead I pass out in her roommate’s bed
Happy to be alive.
