I made a decision. I couldn't leave Brian. Not when we had hit it off so well. I telephoned my sister. I stayed with her, and found a job for the rest of the summer.
Then, instead of returning home to my parents, I lived at my sister's place and attended school.
All this time, Brian and I dated, and after graduation, we were married.
Brian eventually fulfilled his dream, and became a pilot.
I still think he is the handsomest guy I've ever known.
He insists that the poem is a kind of magic, that brought us together.
