Eli’s Evaluation
written by: Alyssa Brocker
@Atelgy
he told me that
i didn’t know how to
live.
that i would rather
plan out a road trip
to the last
detail,
than take a
random one.
that i never truly
listened to the lecture,
just what would be on the test.
that i thought about
why i should be
worried,
instead of
why i should be
happy.
that i cared so much about
the stares of others,
i never kissed him in public.
that i was never
with
him.
i was just thinking of
the next thing i had to get done.
i guess
he knew me better
than i thought.
