stories_vs_life's_experiences
girl_jane Sometimes it takes a while to think of the things we've experienced as 'stories' instead of our lives.

Looking out the window concentrating on
The three stars of Orion’s belt
Sitting in a car
Riding, not driving
A van...not car
Wrapped in a sleeping bag
On the way home
Next to me the boy who I’ve been crushing on since as long as I can remember
Eventually I fell asleep
I was woken up by the two in the front
I was almost home
Almost time to leave the warmth of the sleeping bag
The driver pulled into my drive...
I gathered my things
I had to reach over him to get my purse
He was sleeping
And I was careful not to wake him
I retrieved my purse and put my coat on
I no longer needed the sleeping bag
So I placed it over his sleeping body
And tucked him in
They only had a few miles before he would have to crawl out from underneath the
Sleeping bag
But I wanted him to be warm
I opened the van door
And walked to the front day, key in hand
And I went to my room
Put my pj's on
Forgetting about the penny that had been in my pocket
Until I rediscovered it at a later time
