I watched as he ran away. why didnt i do anything? why is he chasing her? why is he chasing Heather?
was i not enough? was our stars not aligned to make this day any better for you? Does Heather have the universe's back?
So many questions, yet little answers are given back. Just as he kissed me he gave no explanation why, or why he stopped. Why would he kiss me and leave right after Heather passes?!
Heather, oh Heather.
i remember.
she's a girl. an angel. a person i cant compare to.
afterall, how could a boy fall for another boy when she exists. how could i possibly compete with girl. a girl like heather.
heather was in our school. she was the most angelic person anyone can meet. with perfect smile, perfect body, perfect girl. she was just the definition of perfect. a smile as sweet hers of course anyone can fall in love, and of course he was one of them to fall. he fell right in, the barrel, the trend, the love, her eyes, her soft words. i wish i can be Heather. i wish i can be feminine, to wear pretty clothes, to be taken. i wish i was Heather. to have him by my side, to walk by people and get them mesmerised. i wish i was Heather. to take things away from people, without knowing the consequences at all. be Heather to permanently avoid the backlash of liking the same sex, to avoid the disgust, the shrowds of emotions of pain, avoid getting rejecteded. to avoid being a test case.
before i knew it he was already out of my sight. but i can still imagine his soft lips on mine. his warm hand holding my cheek. Though now i can only imagine Heather. it was still third of december. a date i'd hate to remember.
