Cheating

I have been dating the same guy for two years,
Since the eighth grade.
His name is Daniel.

And he's great but I don't know him well,
He's kind but I don't really have a magnetic pull to him,
He's talented but I haven't met him in person. 

One day I will. 

Then there is Lance, 
The popular, and cute kid at my school. 

I started dating Lance in seventh grade
When Daniel came along however
We broke up

There was a week where I was dating two people,
Lance and Daniel. 
My friends said I was cheating,
But I was just coming up with a way to break up with Lance.

Last Februaray I relized I was bisexual
And I was in a relashinship with a girl. 
Her name was Petunia. 

Petunia was beautiful and we were in love
But it only lasted for a couple of days
Afterword my friend, Olivia,
She found out about my boyfriend, Daniel
And said I was cheating on Petunia. 

But it ended quickly anyway,
And I don't really think that we were dating.

Its now present day,
Friday, May 21st,
And I have started dating my middle school crush,
Faris. 

When I started dating Faris 
We were in love,
I mean we were friends before, but this was now more. 
I couldn't believe he actually liked me. 

Its a Wednesday, and its been
a week
Since Faris told me he loved me. 
And latley I don't think he does anymore. 

And maybe I feel the same about him, 
I am still dating Daniel. 
When my friend Olivia asked if I was still dating Daniel,
I told her yes

Maybe that was a mistake. 

She said I was cheating on Faris, 
And I guess I was
But this was different. 

She says, how?

I have known Faris since, preschool
And I just met Daniel. 
I know everything about Faris,
And almost nothing about Daniel. 
I really love Faris, more than he could ever know,
And I don't know if I really like Daniel anymore. 

So naturally Oliva told me to break up with Daniel,
So I said I would. 

But I didn't,
And this wasn't settled. 

Maybe I am cheating, 
But I'm breaking up with one of them today,
And its

Faris.

    We run back to your house,

    The lights are still on,

    And they cover your freckled face,

    Like it's the sun.

     

    The grass brushes our feet,

    And the wind catches in your hair,

  • observation ii

    We sit out on the sand,

    The fog covers the sky,

    And blankets the world,

    Like a shield. 

     

    The waves nip at our feet,

    The water's cold

    But I'm warm because you hold my hand,

  • observation i

    We stand on the dock,

    The sun has set,

    But I can see your happiness 

    Even in the dead of night.

     

    The streetlight's on,

    The metal is all rusted

    And covered in salt,
