She Was Not Used To Being Cruel,

Now I Wish She'd Never Broken Any Of Her Rules. I Understood Why She Held To Them So Hard. Once You Broke The First One, They All Broke, One By One, Like Firecrackers Exploding In Your Face In A Parking Lot On The Fourth Of July.

I Felt Beautiful But Also Interrupted. I Wasn't Used To Being So Complicated.

A Fish Has No Concept Of Water.

She Was Starting To Think There Might Be Such A Thing As Karma - That Repetition - Maybe You Lived Through The Same Thing Over And Over Until You Stopped Caring. Maybe Eventually It Got Less Intense, Until It Was Just Nothing.

Women Always Put Men First. That's How Everything Got So Screwed Up.
