Session Number Three
"Every time
I meet someone,
I really don't feel
anything."
"My heart
gets excited;
my life
lightning flashes
in a blur
across the sky,"
"and then
he opens
his mouth"
"and nothing
I can even
understand
comes out."
"I asked him
if he wanted
a drink,
and he said,
'Yes.'"
"I told him
there was kahlua
in the pantry."
"And
it's way
in the back."
"I guess
he didn't
want it,
because
he didn't
get it."
"He asked
if I enjoyed
our last date."
"'No,
it was okay,
yeah,"
I admitted.'"
"He said,
'Yeah...
I enjoyed it
too.'"
"'I wouldn't go
that far.
Lol!'
I said."
"'Maybe
we could meet
at the park
and go
for a run?'"
"'I don't run
on dirt paths.'"
"'It's bad
for my skin.'"
"'What
would you
like
to do?'
I asked."
"'Let's just
leave it
open,'
he sighed."
"'I need
to know
how
to dress!'
I explained."
"'Let's leave
that
open,'
he breathed
heavily."
"'Where
are we
gonna eat?'
I warned him."
"'Let's leave
everything
open,'
he doubled
down."
"'I'll call
you.'"
"And
I really can't
get a good guy."
"All I get
is booty calls,"
she said.
"Let me think
about it,"
I said.
"I'll get back
to you."
