call me...or don't

for one whole summer i wrote my name in the dirt. i actually wrote two names in hopes it would come true. the other name doesn't matter so much anymore. something made up so my name wouldn't be so lonely. jonas scrawled after the plus sign. just a holding place.

i would walk past it everyday at the same time in the hopes of some response. someone answering my diana + somebody = something scenario. some desoto prince charming pining for my affections. some competion. something like, "oh yeah...that band rocks" would also have been acceptable. most of all i wanted someone to take notice. i was curious if they wondered who i was. if they hid in the bushes to catch a glimpse. if they got disappointed and slumped away or if they were too shy. if they fished in the creek? if they walked their cat? if they were anyone i would care to meet.

i've given up the dirty games though.
