In Waves

My date asked me if I was depressed.


I froze,


Not sure how to answer her.


I was a few beers in,


And I think I mumbled something like,


“It comes and goes in waves.”


. . . I’m not sure why I was that honest with her . . .


The next day she said she didn’t see a future with me because we had different values.


I thought that was a pretty fucked up thing to say to someone. 


My values? I think I have a few of those somewhere.


. . . Why not just lie and say that our astrological signs aren’t compatible? Why the attempt to gut me?


Oh well . . .


It all comes and goes in waves anyway . . . even love.
