Is Love Alive?

i met him at a party.... not the opening words you want to hear about someone.
he seemed like a beautiful boy. but isn't that what i always say?
he seemed charming too. but isn't that what i always say?
maybe he'll be different. but i most certainly always have to add that on to the end of my thoughts.

for sanity's sake.

he walked my girl friends and i home from the party. and left after dropping me off at my room with a hug (thank god). then went on his way, never to be heard from again. no numbers exchanged, no kisses, no words. just the hug. i left my room to clean up after the party. when i returned, i saw his bag left in the center of my bed.

maybe he'll come back. that's not something i usually say... is it?
maybe he'll turn out sweet and want something more than what they all want. but maybe that's just my twisted mind cutting off the oxygen to my heart.
