her

sometime after the 4th,
we all found ourselves there
in the park,
wine in cans
as we laughed
getting drunk
with the sunken sun.
he knew a back way
to get home.
sunset avenue
it seemed so fitting.
walking too fast
as i slurred my words,
trying to romanticize
the moment we were
living in.
we parted ways that night
and i didn't think
a thing of it.
she'd admitted liking you,
which i thought
was weird.
she was so indescribably
perfect,
so undoubtedly gorgeous
and you didn't even
look at her half as much
as my eyes caught hers.
