There Was a Boy

There was a boy, his name was Jamie. He had a brother, his name was Damen. He had jet-black hair. He had sharp eyes, but a playful gaze. He joked with girls— hung with guys. They said he was annoying — but I could never tell if they meant it. I will admit I had a small thing for Jamie last year. I met a boy, his name was Damen. We talked often. I learned more about Jamie that way. I hung around Jamie more often, a few seconds longer each time. We’re friends now. I think. That’s what he said at least. There is a boy, he has a younger brother. This boy is named Jamie, and I think I like him all over again.
