Today I lost My Teenage Crush of Yesterday
I always wondered why I loved so much the movie
The Breakfast Club
I "got it" today
Which girl do you think Char was?
Yes I was a Child of the 80's...
Ally Sheedy was me...
Alternating with the Preppie Look on my "off days"
Figure that one out...
Well there was the boy a.k.a the Judd Nelson role
The baddest of the bad and like Claire...
I thought the world of was our High School's baddest of the bad
25 years or thereabouts he brought a gun to school -
But I just saw him as in need of my help, or my love - or rather, mis-guided.
I suppressed the memory of the gun and remember him as the young man that hung around the hallways, with the beautiful full smile - Asking me,
"Is this the day you are to kiss me?"
I would giggle as only a teenage school girl can effortlessly do, and ran through the school doors as the final bell rang, with a toss of my hair and lingering glance over my shoulder, and a soft, "No - " whereas my glance promised much more.
I remembered him as the WhatIf -
Well I invited that memory -
Now a middle-aged man into my world -
Wanting his kisses at last -
What I received instead
Was turmoil, screaming, threats and more.
A hurt boy lost within a 6'0 frame of a man -
I reached out and smiled and tried, tried, tried -
One of my friends call me Teenager in Love, very mis-guided myself as I, too, am so not near the teenage years either.
He has been labeled sociopath - Yikes!
He steals from his job - Daily.
He has a warrant for his head - Oh! 4 charges pending - Ouch!
I wanted touching he offered that for all of 10 days and then it was like a switch turned "off" for him - He told me that was not Me, for those 10 days. It seemed to make You Happy so I partook.
He even elaborated, I was dazed by your assault.
After a month, of my paying for everything - With his promises of I will pay you back on my next paycheque...
Of which he would pay me back but always "just short" as he had to buy the beater car, the weed, the essentials of repair for his beater car - You have the rent covered don't you
Oh wait I forgot to add - I am moving out next week
Into a mansion, with which it is on the water, so every night we will catch our dinner and eat fresh fish every night - No more foodbank castoff's for me - oh no!
What a slap in the face!
What a horrible feeling to be a mere stepping stone!
He is moving in with his boss at work for 3 weeks as his parents are in Mexico for 3 weeks - of which Mommy has fully stocked the fridge - No more foodbank food for him!
This is a man I've told I am scared of my health of late -
Bleeding for 2 weeks straight and results of other tests are to be told -
and that I am going back to school in a month -
But he walks away when financial assistance, if not a friend to talk to - would be the thing to be as I learn the results?
Fear is mine - Re the Results
Yet he walks away -
The boss of his - I have known in a party environment who brags about the many trans-sexuals who have given him a bj -
Hmmmmm - Nothing "comes" for free - But you may
Oh does that sound bitter?
A tad, of course.
I have not mentioned the screaming sessions - late at night.
As I try to talk to him and he screams in return?
Like for instance, this a.m. -
I am sitting here - not quite awake - Loopy in fact -
When he comes with another scream -
When you left last night, you deliberately set a fire in the fireplace to burn me up in my sleep!
You want me dead.
I just stared at him and wondered,
I thought I cared about You?
Who are You?
Are You in There?
Anywhere?
