Amateur forever

 When you invite a former crush to a performance

And she comes

But leaves before you do the thing that was really good

And a lot of other people saw it

People who care

Who are moved 

Who mirror you

Who get it

Maybe even a future unmet crush 

What’s with that nagging feeling?

I feel like there’s a lot to learn

From the feelings that come up about who shows up

I don’t care if this reveals me as an amateur performer

Well maybe I care a little bit

I suspect no one is really over it

I’d like to be over it


The girls that think they are cool

When really they are just good at leaving early 

 

It was really good though

The thing I did

I can revel in the people who stayed

And were moved 

And lingered 

I could learn from tonight
