it’s basically the same thing, just added and altered shit
————————————————
I just wanted a break.
From people, from things, from myself:
And now you.
You goddamned, unwanted (read; needed) addition to the catastrophic mix.
But you were from the South Side, and for the love of God, were a member of Rebelde.
And I was from the North Side. And I’m pretty sure if Stalin found out,
He would suffer from a coronary – not that I’d particularly mind.
I reckon it wasn’t really a rule. It was unspoken.
No one ever told me not to mingle with you,
I just knew it like I know my own age.
I knew it since birth.
And now, not only did I want a break, I needed one.
