Stormy PoeticJustice
29 March 1999
Simple
I had been
waiting
for my friend
to buy concert tickets
to see my
favorite group
for a long time.
The day she got them,
I had made
a date with you.
“Sorry”, I said,
“I can’t go.
I have a date.”
My friend was stunned.
She asked me how
I could give up
such a great show for
“some girl”.
“Because”,
I said simply,
“she’s
the
one”.
