dear boy in the back of the classroom,
you talked to me today, i saw your pretty eyes as deep as the ocean itself. you know that sparkling water we used to sometimes drink on new years because we didn't like cider? that's what they remind me of.
you asked me, "why are you back here?"
i simply smiled and told you, "because i care."
you cried, then you smiled.
and god, seeing your smile in almost two years made me want to do it all over again.
from, boy who now sits next to you in the back of the classroom.
