E:I saw her looking around nervously,
As if she had a secret to hide.
She walks slowly towards I familiar looking guy.
My heart shutters realizing she’s lied.
S:I told him I’m hanging out at my aunt's place.
E:The pain was unbearable recognizing my best friend’s face.
S:I told him to come over Saturday. I’ll end the secrets there.
E:Nothing I do can help me prepare.
I can’t imagine her telling me she doesn’t care.
S:I feel sneaking around his back isn’t fair.
E: Walking through the halls I hear people whisper, and I know what they’re saying.
I know they know about the sick game she’s been playing.
S:Word’s getting around school fast.
I hope he doesn’t hear until Saturday’s past.
E:The day is finally here.
On my way I’ll down some beer.
S:His friend and I planned so hard for his birthday party.
He knew being here was important to me.
Hours pass by.
I can’t help but cry.
The phone starts to ring and I feel angry.
His numbers shows on caller ID.
I hear his mother's voice anxiously ask “Is Eric with you?
I reply “He hasn’t even shown up to a surprise party we threw.”
He never did, and I haven’t seen him since.
I’m tired of hearing people come to his defense.
Watching Tv there’s a knock at the door.
Standing in front of me is a man I’ve never seen before.
Greetings are shared. A police badge is shown.
He takes a deep breath, and speaks in a low tone.
“Sarah Kaden, I have to ask you some questions and inform you of some things.”
The pain in his eyes makes my heart sting.
“Eric Thompson, do you know what he was doing Saturday the fifteenth?”
He looked very serious and intensely at me.
So, I told him the story about the party, and how he didn’t show.
The officer’s face filled with sorrow.
“May we sit down. I have some bad news.”
I sat, held my breath, and waited for him to continue.
“Apparently Saturday Mr. Thompson had too much to drink.”
The thumping in my chest began to sink.
“His car was found under Traveltine Bridge amongst the rocks.”
I stared to the carpet unable to talk.
“In the car we found many beer cans
along with a photo clutched tightly in his hands.”
He then pulled out a picture of me.
“There’s a note on the back you’ll want to see.”
I wiped at the tears I apparently shed,
and turned it around. On the back it read…
Dear Darling,
Don’t feel an ounce of guilt because I’m gone.
If you think it’s your fault then you’re wrong.
I realize how you’ve come to feel about me.
I’m letting you go, so you can be happy.
This is my way of facing reality.
I know throughout our love you’ve cared.
Please cherish the moments we’ve shared.
I never wanted to be the reason you’ve cried.
Please know that I’ve loved you till I’ve died.
Forever and more,
Eric T.

His Poem
Sometimes I wish
A very silly wish
A wish that only love obsessed girls want
To come true
I wish that my phone will ring
The sweet ringtone
That I specifically set for him
The one that I will never forget
I would immediately pick up
And we’d talk as if nothing had changed
Our friendship would be at the same strength
But the relationship, the love, wouldn’t exist
Why?
Because love caused hatred
Love caused me to cling
To the last hope I had of feeling like craving
It’s not like craving an egg roll
Or craving the tightest hug from the friend
That has cared about you since time started
Oh no
This craving makes me cry

Let's Pretend
Oh, I know you've seen the shadows closing in,
I've lost so much, I can't remember, how it feels to win,
My heart's crawled, bleeding, to your door...
I need escape, 'cuz I can't take the suffering anymore.
So let's pretend tonight,
Pretend I'm worth your time,
Pretend your love's my light,
Pretend your heart is mine.
We know that it won't last,
It's just fantasy,
But let's just have a past,
So I can hold your memory.
I won't ask you for forever,
I know you can't stay long,
But let's pretend tonight,
And I'll pretend I'm strong.
I always knew the night would come,
But nothing prepared me for losing you,
I couldn't accept it, but you'r

Letting the Past Die
Letting the Past Die
11/4/18
The past—everyone says to let it go
Despite being its present descendants
And resulting culminations—echoes
Pictures paused, prompting pensive reminiscence
And subsequent self-reflection. It stores
Memories fleeting adrift in oceans
Flooded from the stress of living life coursed
In cutthroat waters, chasing promotions
Or raises—hooked as soon as we taste it
Just once. While revisiting my past, I
Recovered fragments, memories lost in
The growing countless chapters cast aside
Ignored: old friends, faces I'd forgotten
Unclaimed treasures of moments I’d have cherished
Forever had I known what

A very neat approach, but *sob* why you make me so sad?
