I remember when we met. the harmonizing tone of your voice and my cries was beautiful. cliched. you let me go and the sun couldn't rise. I promised myself I'd never drink again.
I saw you in the halls at school. it was between fourth hour and fifth hour. "hi" I stuttered out, breathing in your hair, the bell and your scent. musk. you nodded in your satisfaction and we met up again in the janitor's closet. i missed all of fifth hour and most of sixth.
I told you I couldn't perch at your locker forever. there were too many crumblings cliffs to balance on my toes along. those pedastal eyes of yours leaked and made my breath come short. "my name is eric."
I never see you anymore.
