I Never Enrolled

“I NEVER ENROLLED”



I'm inside the car.
it's 6:45.
just before 6
I heard the words:

why do you do that?
why do you lead them on?
why is it fine you do it
but not me?
I don't want his stick.
I stopped that possibility 
of sex because I chose to.
saving his stick picture
doesn't mean anything.
I'm not gonna say anything. 
I'm just brushing it off.
you can be with whoever you 
want.
you can do whatever you want.
you like that they like you.
you tell me it's wrong to act 
when I get attention but it's 
fine for you?
I don't need to send his wife 
the stick picture he sent me.
keeping it doesn't mean 
anything. 
no, saving his stick picture 
doesn't mean I'm keeping the 
option open to have sex with 
him.
go bump her then.
I'm done trying to make you happy.
bump my opinion. 
I don't care what you think 
anymore. 
I wore this bra for you.


I lost his stick already.
why can't you ever be fine
with me?
oh so you get the last laugh?
I'm sure you'll jack off 
tonight.
oh yeah, but not Tatiana 
right?
go back to her then.
I'm a whore; it's burned into 
my brain.
you hate me.
I know. 
trust me. 
bump love, bump me, bump 
everything. 
do what you want Eddie, 
you're better off without me.

the door slams and I hear 
footsteps fade.
she's off to school.

Very raw and honest poem, Chicano. Or do you prefer to be called Eddie. Let me know. Hope it ain't the school of hard knocks that she's off to. Lol! You got a lot of bounce in your poems. I like that vibe you have w/your words. Love the poem though. Many blessings of love to you. RW (Romantic Warrior)
