It Defined Me


Where
I see him walk by
He looks at me, then her
She used him
He used her
They unexisted me
I’m a back pocket boyfriend
He’s a selfish boy
And my heart can’t take much more
I stand
My legs shake
But I move forward anyway
My gaze moves up from
the ground
I force that smile that has
forever defined me.

I would be curious to know the story behind this one. Perhaps when I am in Tally (5/12-17/06) we can get together and have a chat. Maybe in a park, on a bench...

There is nothing more that I would like than to sit on a park bench with you and chat, but I'm in NYC until June 5th then I'm off to Honduras three days later. :-( Come see me in NYC?

Also, there isn't much behind this story. It's just lines that I wrote a long time ago during a literature class. I just found it in one of my old school folders that I was throwing away.

Will that scene on the park bench be anything like This?

Hehe, j/k but the mention of the park bench just reminded me of that, and i couldnt resist.

If you knew anything about Nikki or I you'd know that we never have a very marketable "park bench chat" ;-) Ain't that right Miss Nikki?

Dante,
What's worse is I can't ever remember writing most of them. lol

Yes, you have a point about our chats not being very "marketable".
