Flip Phone

I used to think the only way to end a relationship was to burn it alive like Sophomore year when I called you 16 times in a row until everything between us died face down on a flip phone
Tonight I’m at a party and a tall stranger goes “laguna beach, like the show?” I nod and think thank you MTV
The last time I saw you was outside of an Apple store a place I mostly avoid but today I’m here because I have to be and a genius tells me he’s “impressed by the age of phone” which doesn’t actually feel like a compliment but I take it with me like it does
The last time I slept over you plugged my phone in across the room using your 10 foot long cord from amazon which i quietly hated remember how I got into bed with my jeans still on? socks too. you were like “those jeans look good on you” but really your room was freezing and I had run out of ways to tell you how far away you felt
