To ease your mind

by Megan Aries - Not entered

I found out tonight that a gut from my high school
killed himself. I didn't really know him, but I've seen
him many times, very distant, nice body, sweet smile.
I'm really sorry, Paul. I'm sorry that you felt the need
to sit in your red jeep and inhale toxic fumes to find
your deathly home. I can't say that I'll miss you, but
I know that others will. Was college life that mistreating?
Whats weird is, my ex-boyfriend slept with your
ex-girlfriend before I slept with him and after you
slept with her, so I basically slept with you...
I probably would have never thought about it that way
if you weren't dead. Harsh as it may sound, its reality.
Rest in peace, Paul MacDonald. Maybe I'll see you again
sometime.
