she was a total mess.
and thinking of the boy made her feel more crazy.
she didn't want to know what love was.
she wanted nothing else.
theres a moment,
a moment when you can feel the slightest shift
in a new relationship.
when one person pulls and the other stands still.
the loss of control feels like a tremor.
so she decided to sit.
sit on the edge and wait
for whatever tsunami or sinkhole would
swallow her up.
and her breathy prayer
to whomever would listen
was finally "i'm not going anywhere."
"i'm staying here."
