Sally

"I love the feeling just before you go"

96
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

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
