The Jose Poem

~Remember that concert exactly a year ago? Yeah, I was there. And I watched. You. You were so focused up there. At the back of the stage. Every move - deliberate. Those headphones. Your I'm-concentrating-now face. And I sat there - and cried. The tears fell hidden beneath my stupid sunglasses. I was so full of feelings - they were pouring out and you still couldn't see them. ~Remember that poem you wrote last year? Yeah, I read it. One question. Who was it about? Who has clear blue eyes? That kind of hurt. ~Remember that night you told me about her? Her and you? I didn't feel this way then. But now I'll say it. She can take you. But first - Take my heart, open it up, and just dump out all of those memories. And then give it back to me.
