You cross my mind everyday. I know it’s over, yet it takes everything within me to keep from calling you on those late nights walking across the Common. I know you would answer and keep me company but it’s best we don’t talk yet. The time isn’t right. I hope someday it will be. —late night caller

  1. Captain Pragmatism sez: keep your phone hidden, your eyes open and your head on a swivel when crossing the Commons late at night. The filth won’t give a toss about your emotional vulnerability. It’s that last part that they’ll home in on.
    Nurse your wounded heart at home and stay safe.
