she'd always craved him - since the day they met.
she'd just moved into his high school - they were twelve years old at the time.
they'd liked each other for a while - flirted and what not.
then he began dating a good friend of hers.
no matter how many coins she flipped, wishes she'd made or shoots she'd shot - she was never good enough for the silly boy.
her mother told the poor fourteen year old she'd have to let him go as she cried into her arms.
two years, two years she waited for her love - he never returned it.
though she still stuck around - they were very good friends those two.
by the time they'd both turned sixteen
ruth had made her feelings pretty clear to john.
and john made his feelings pretty unclear to ruth, always flirting with her then not speaking to her for days on end.
so ruth came to the conclusion : it was time to move bloody on.
