You Haven't Changed

To Alex
Take this as you would from a friend since that's precisely what we are. That silly boy I thought had grown up or that you had told me had grown up isn't gone. I was like the inducer  for your repressible operon in molecular genetics. Once I left, there was no need to repress that so you reverted right back to what you were. It makes me wonder if you had ever changed at all or if you were just hiding it this whole time. Not that it should hurt me, but I guess this means it's still a cut and not a scar yet. I know I wasn't just an object even if it felt like it sometimes, but it makes me curious if I started that way. Must be why things are the way they are today. This isn't something you grow out of. My father is a prime example of that. This is something you open your eyes to and make the change to better yourself as a human being. There goes one more guy I can add to list that will never see me as an equal. I was not a prize that you won and neither is any other girl on this planet. I can't change you. You have to change you.
