november 16, 1996.

we were tracing each other's initials onto the frosted windowpane of your mother's car window.

you told me my hair was the color of a honeybee's

and the nickname stuck.

i drew a map of my heart and showed you

the place where you took up

three-quarters of it.

i told you everything, starting with

how you tore my walls

down,

and ending with that feeling of bliss inside

when you looked at me

with indigo eyes.

you kissed me with open,

salty lips

and it was bittersweet.

silence, then three stupid words were

whispered without meaning.

"i love you."

i wasn't expecting such an abrupt confession

from the boy in the backseat

who'd stolen my heart.

and i couldn't believe you.
