the cool

by Angela Thomas

it was just like being back.

we sat in the front seat of my car
and spoke and spoke for hours and hours.
i learned a lot from what was said;
from what wasn't, i learned more, i think.
these are things that i learned,
about me -

i have never been made breakfast in bed -
i have never been given flowers, just 'cause -
i have never been the center of a love -
i have never truley been loved, the right way -
i am just waiting for something, and in the mean time,
i seem to just be here.

"what did you do?"
"about what?"
"your love for him..."
"i left."
"didn't that hurt?"
"(silence.)"

baby, take off your cool
i want to, get to, know you...
(take off your cool)
