A Tribute To One Month of Sarandon
Okay after some quick research just to be sure, it is me and brandon's one month aniversary. (to be honest i have not the slightest clue where he is or what he's doing and i haven't talked to him all day. getting ansy, but that's just a natural defense mechanism after being cheated on for the past four or five years.) I was reflecting on what i've been through to be with him and how far we've come as a couple. It doesn't seem like it's been a month but the calendar says otherwise. No one know the whole story behind me and brandon, although i explained it to ashley christopher (it took the entire forty minute class period) she said it would make a lovely teen soap opera. i couldn't agree more, we were thinking of a theme song, if you have any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated. I can't possibly right the whole thing with comentary cuz it would far too long for you to want to read. So i wrote an epic narrative poem about sarandon called against all odds. it's kind of long so be prepared. But it has a lot of interesting info as you will soon see. ...ahem....
I remember the day we met,
You elbowed dropped my alto sax,
Somehow though i was stressed,
You made me relax,
We didn't talk much after that,
Til band camp one day,
I was crying,
And you knew exactly what to say,
From that moment we were nearly insepartable,
Talking and laughing all the time,
Doing aroebics in the elvator, and cleaning windows with pancakes,
I even wrote a weird little rhyme,
There's nothing like emptying your spit valve,
In a girls shoe,
To show how much you care,
I wish we would have stolen that bus,
So i could escape with you,
But things were complex,
To say the least,
Joshua, my boyfriend at the time, could not be conquered,
Not even by yeast,
One fateful warm august night,
Your shoulder cradled my head,
Your hand reached for mine,
Without a single word being said,
It just could be that easy however,
And afterwards i remember the look on alex's face,
" I know how you feel" was all he said,
The thought of that choice made my heart race,
We had to pretend like nothing had happened,
That I wasn't falling in love with you,
THe harsh words people said,
You had to deny your feeling were true,
I had to live life emptily,
I hoped and prayed for you to see,
The longing i had,
Deep inside of me,
We skanked up a storm,
At the roper show,
a month or so later,
I began to glow,
You took my hand, and said "i'm sorry"
I radiated with a happiness that i had never felt,
It was difficult at first,
Because of how other's had dealt,
You made me feel beautiful,
For the very first time,
I had to give back to the sweet things you say,
And tell our story in a rhyme.
So there you have it...my version at least. I really thank God for him, and don't want him to be taken away from me. I would do anything for him, even go through all that again. It was really long wasn't it? sorry about that. I love you all very much, it's hard for me to think about how things were a while ago. I think you can understand now.
