I still pace your profiles like theres something to see. Some lyric that ties it all together, makes my insanity a little less insane, makes it all make sense. Of course, theres not. There were so many times we just missed eachother. I didnt know youd stretched your hand out, in the dark, for so long, and once i knew, it was too late. I was gone, and so were you. What wouldve become of us if i had known? Who would we be now? we'll never know. and so, I pace.

I waited on many mothers with their daughters today. my last table had a prada shopping bag with them. they stayed an hour after my shift ended. did they think I didn't have a mother waiting at home? ... of course, my mother wasnt at home. she, too, waited on many mothers with their daughters today. i wonder if she realizes, in another life, we would be at the table with a prada shopping bag too. give me a few years, mom. we'll get there.

The timing wasn't right for us- But you breaking your arm And getting cheated on And making enemies Does bring a smile to my face. The timing wasn't right for us- But karma never sleeps.

I was your karma
I can't find the energy to care about you anymore. Or your new girlfriend, or your car, passing me on the way to the city at 9 pm, always showing up wherever I least want you. I saw her wearing your shirt the other day. I can't find the energy to care about you anymore.

When I met you, I was on magic mushrooms. or maybe I wasn't. but either way, the moment we made eye contact things began to swirl- and the world became candy-colored. things are grey now.

The last time you knew me, I was not as fond of substances. when you decided not to know me anymore, the     downwards                        spiral                                 began- allow me to reintroduce myself: Hello, my name is unimportant, and my brain is buzzing.

we made eye contact today. The last time I held you was a year ago. I don't know how I feel about that.

okay, but I don't 𝒘𝒂𝒏𝒕 to be the bigger person. I want to be the person who looks out for their own needs. being the bigger person for what? the benefit of someone I hate? the benefit of someone I avoid in the halls? you don't 𝒅𝒆𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒆 for me to be the bigger person- so I will throw my fits.

I love you, and it's a mess. You love her, who is dating him-    and she loves him, but he won't tell-     and I love you, while I'm dating them-   and I love him, but I love you- and thus, a mess is made.
