Holly calls and tells me it's typical I shouldn't feel like a freak there are times she can't speak to Ryan without exploding so she drives away and spends the night with our grandmother who is married to our grandfather who is going through some sort of crisis spending his money on a three-wheeler and a junk car that has Fear This on the back window then there's Chasity who cries herself to sleep at night and her baby girl is due in September I remember all the wise talks Holly would give me when she was a kid and I wasn't "You've got to believe in yourself" and "Don't worry about what other people think" but this is common she tells me she tells me my sister tells me my mom tells me marriage isn't always about passion passion and memories are something you squelch to make it work you close a door on the past and walk away that's smart that makes sense you only love men who love you back or there's hell to pay you'll be wailing beyond the grave like La Llorona save me! save me! shit, girl... get it together and save yourself. |
