Sally

"I love the feeling just before you go"

94
Sally
Brian Bean

Here’s the story

Of a girl named Sally

I haven’t told a soul

So here goes; I’ll tell the world

Sally was a beaut

Probably still is

Kind and funny

Adorably geeky and naturally pretty

The kind you bring home to Mommy and Daddy

Then out to the city for dinner and drinks

And a late night stroll down the small town streets

You see, Sally was unique

And a flirt she was, too!

The cause of which I attributed to

Her and her lover

Were together not a whole

So she sought validation

And an end to frustration

By finding another to love and to hold

One night we were out, Sally and I

Out for some drinks after a night full of pie

There was a group of us folks

Being merrily drunk

This night in particular my lover and I

Were also in a funk

And were for some time

You see Sally saw through me

And my silly façade

And I knew her real smile

From that fake one she had

Sally knew my girl

And I knew her boy too

But neither of us cared

In the heat of the moment

Or even the few hours before


We made our way back to my place

For late night drinks, and a smoke or a toke

We knew not where the night would take us

Except outside time and space

We sat on the couch and talked for awhile

‘Till eventually I saw that smile

Shortly thereafter we were in bed

Fully clothed for the moment

But that moment would end

Sooner or later, we wound up together

But that night that we shared

Would haunt me forever

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
