Mr. Skinny JeansA Poem by SmileBig :)Her eyes lower as a pair of skinny jeans struts
into the room, faceless because she refuses to make eye contact, immediately
walking towards her general vacinity, and it makes her cringe with delight and
pain all at once. She stands there, solid as a stone but breaking like waves on
the shoreline underneath her skin, she is cracking with no words to describe
what she’s feeling as he continues walking in her direction and stops in front
of her. Says hi like nothing ever happened, like their past didnt exist, gives
her a hug like he doesn't know she still has feelings for Mr. Skinny Jeans. She
doesn't want to play pretend but it might be the only way to keep her friend.
She's lying, smiling while her heart is pounding, hugging back even when she
wants to step away, because she's hoping that one day… the pain will subside,
and her smile will stop being a lie, she’s hoping one day…the feelings for him
will disappear…but will that day ever…be here?
