never love to you and never will try to get your shit together and join a gym
they're going to the gym regularly and even though you don't know that much
about exercise in your way too weak to do pretty much anything below five pound
weights with the old people do it until your sweat makes a puddle on the floor
then go home and go to bed and the next day do it again and then again and again
then go to work and listen to stories of your ex girlfriend fucking around with
gross and terrible people stories from your co-workers friends who think
they're doing you a favor
pretend that it doesn't bother you pretend that being forced see racks at
work every day isn't fucking killing you pretend that everything's fine go to the
gym and make more pools of sweat buy books learn about different muscle
groups and how they work together we can meals try to forget her back to the gym
or put a piece of shit you are at peace she said you are appease
shake after the gym one night go all the way up to the top of the parking garage
and walk all the way to the back regarding the weight of the skyscrapers
of downtown and think about how every single one of those office lights
represents a person
try to imagine how they feel like they're doing then realized that most of
those lights are probably shining in the offices with no one in them realize
you're alone and you're staring at no one
become crippling me depressed and try to locate your car go to sleep go back to
work
go to the gym sweat good luck on your axe Apollo one day she was the necklace
you bought her and tells you that you got it from someone really special that
night you discover that Slater's angel death might be the perfect song to do
squats to turn to make friends at the gym
used to look down on grown ups and downs but since that gym rats communicate
that's become the language you speak most often maxine you spot each other on
Wednesday is being used by each other on Fridays important not to forget the
europeans ship where Kim sleep over an hour or more swept your body changes
slowly than all at once you get your goal weight and hit it again go out and
buy new clothes she received wave after wave of compliments your ex tells you
that she's seeing someone else
pieces that are you go to the gym to run farther and left more than you thought
your body was capable of you go to single chicken breast and steamed
vegetables you dream about was back on now there's a girl you see a lot of the
gym who always does these weird leg exercises you've never seen before you
make it a point not to look at her because you're overly worried about
looking creepy never wears underwear and always hangs around the lab hold them
but you notice these girls always at the gym when you are and seems to always
choose the bench next to you you turn up the Slayer and concentrate on making
your bottles beer at work here explains her new boyfriend around flatly ignoring
you the entire time he's taller than you in better shape the new and
significantly better looking than you
email to yourself with the subject heading you are a warrior the next day
you are more disgusted with yourself and you've ever been and you delete it
immediately you make bottle after bottle after bottle any single chicken breast
and work and sleep over and over and over and over and over and over and then
something different happens and I comes when you're not the last person in the
gym it's you and the girl who does the weird leg exercises you end up walking
out at the same time her name is Melissa and she works close by she has yet to
dinner on Friday promising it'll be healthy
the leg exercises are given currency lunches Melissa lifeboat inside the gym
now you have a couple of days here we start getting a lot less than I but you
don't answer
19 you're welcome illicit or car and she says she wants to show you something
special you will stand there in the dark looking out over the lights of downtown
isn't pretty
with others why they think it is but also makes you feel sad all those lights
mean nothing they're just shining into cold lonely officers with nobody in them
but most tells you that it's late is an empty office but they're only empty
because the people have all gone home for the day is once a person who's at
home happy with them on their way
and she smiles something in your chest expands on Sunday afternoon you're ready
your rent check and realize it's been exactly a year since you started working
out I think about those miles you run sound you've lived in chicken and
bottles you've made and it doesn't seem that bad you realize that it's not about
to go away or lifting weights about waiting being patient trusting that life
was slowly inch along and things will get better after all
change takes time is all it takes
that bore no fruit juices too much sugar
