  Wondering of Right and Wrong
Jen and I happened to be taking Tae Kwon Do together when I was 14 years old. Our class was doing an exhibition at the town fair, and there being so little to do at that age, we spent the rest of the day walking up and down the aisles together, going from booth to booth. That was a great day, spending time with a girl that seemed to like me as much as I liked her. I knew how I felt must be wrong.

A while later, she stopped coming to class, and nearly ten years later, I happened to run into her at a bar. We chatted for a while nostalgically, now flirting over memories. The idea of getting together one day came up, and so I gave her my number. I fell asleep that night smiling, knowing I was right.

I had that same phone number for years after that, but it never rang from her call. And still to this day, I wonder.

This is a collection of my entire life's sentences as I have judged them.

Some are innocent, others are not, but each hides within it a subtle prisoner; a villain that could be freed if you pried the lines apart like cell bars and read between them, detailing remorse for a crime of life that can no longer be disguised.

(This is a second blog, because Blogger broke my first one)
