Peppermint Patty

I had sushi with my friend isaac

And he had noodles and we talked some ****

And i told him my love life and he told me his

And he told me his

☽

Luke’s up north, i’ll visit one day

Ruby’s in nelson, she’s got a nice place

And christie is leaving, she’s good at screenprints

She’s gone for nine months

☽

I met someone at a gig friday night

The show went to 12 but we stay til 2

He told me his name and i told him mine

And that i told him mine

☽

He gave me his number and i wrote it down

And then he told me that he was soon leaving town

We had to catch up again the next day

Or at least sometime before he went away

☽

So when i got home i sent him a text

And asked him when i could go see him next but

To my confusion it didn’t go through

Cause i think i misheard a digit or two

☽

I used up my data searching his name

Or at least a profile picture with his face

And to my despair nothing came up

But infatuation that i had saved up broke me

☽

It broke me
