dolorous interludes.

Random thought.

I sit alone on the cozy ground floor
On a bench by the garden waiting also
Waiting for love and thinking of all of the catty remarks I also swallow

I like simple minded people. I really do. At fourteen, i remember my english teacher asking us what qualities we looked for in a boyfriend (don't ask me how this came up in class, i can't remember now, but it did.). I raised my hand rather quickly (it being a subject of interest to me at that age, and well, now too), and i said, "Sincerity".

How could i have misplaced this important trait along the way and perhaps even substituted it for superficial qualities that are but fleeting? I'm glad i was reminded this afternoon though. It's about time i did, lest i put my heart in jeopardy again.
