"

Yet the one I think of most often,
the one that dangles from me like a locket,
was written in the copy of Catcher in the Rye
I borrowed from the local library
one slow, hot summer.
I was just beginning high school then,
reading books on a davenport in my parents’ living room,
and I cannot tell you
how vastly my loneliness was deepened,
how poignant and amplified the world before me seemed,
when I found on one page

A few greasy looking smears
and next to them, written in soft pencil-
by a beautiful girl, I could tell,
whom I would never meet-
Pardon the egg salad stains, but I’m in love.

"

shebashiva: You're studying almost exactly what I studied! (Global and International Studies and French). Undergrad or Masters?

that’s funny because i didn’t mention international studies, but that’s the actual major i’m in (global health is my track and minor). undergrad, but the plan is to eventually get a jd-mph.
