A short story about a sunset.
I needed to get out of the house so I got in my car and drove away.
I left my phone at home because I didn’t want to hear from her.
I wasn’t mad at her, but she liked me and that scared me.
We had been seeing each other for a couple weeks and she started to like me a lot which is the scariest thing in the world.
It was only a matter of time before she needed me and the last thing I wanted was to be needed by anyone.
I liked her a lot and that scared me.
It was only a matter of time before I needed her and the last thing I wanted was to need anyone.
I was driving and the sun went down and the moon came up.
I wish the moon felt as good on my face as the sun but you can’t have everything all at once I guess.
