The old days come rushing back the alcohol haze makes it easy to dismiss all of the reasons why it's so wrong. It's been so long since she's been out to play, but it all comes back so quickly, like it was only yesterday. flirtatious looks come-hither moves everything says "I'm easy, but standards still exist- you'll do for a couple of hours" the non discreet location where anyone can stumble upon them adds to the excitement. but even so the alcohol is enough of an inducement, it always was. and they go far enough to make it worth their while, but never cross that line. 10,20,30 minutes of small talk and he's overstayed his welcome. drop him back at his car no numbers exchanged no future encounters, that was never the plan. the haze fades, the next day spent in bed, too tired to contemplate thoughts that would overwhelm. but the hangover always goes, and my mind is a whirlwind, my soul condemning her for acts it can no longer forgive. 8/8/04 |
