I’m Thinking About You More Than I’m Comfortable With

Maybe I’ve just been lonely. Maybe it’s just been too long since I kissed someone. Maybe it’s been too long since I kissed someone and liked it. Maybe that’s all there is to this.

What I Want To Yell At My Therapist

I tell her I’m scared a part of me will always hurt, that I think I’m a magnet to ruin, she asks me if there’s more. I tell her she should read more of my poetry to buy us more time for next week.

A List Of Demands For All Fuckboys

Stop acting like you’re special. We don’t all want to date you. We aren’t all in love with you. Don’t get all bent out of shape and weirded out over a text, or over any kind of interest in your life or who you are as a person. If I like you, I will make it known.
