Short Stories - The Ergs!

Oh Eveline

I’m so tired of saying the wrong thing

While amped up on caffeine

Sweaty hand-soaked paper notes

Freeform acts and deleted scenes

«I think you’re beautiful,» I said

Then the next week you were gone

You moved out to another town

You’re the main character

In my short stories

There are no happy ends

Oh Eveline

I’m so tired of saying the wrong thing

While amped up on caffeine

A furiously scribbled out manuscript

New revisions of fucked up dreams

«You said, 'You think I’m cool',» she said

How do I interpret that?

What the hell does that mean?

Oh Eveline

I’m so tired of saying the wrong thing

While amped up on caffeine

Oh Eveline
