14/F/USA The longer I live for the more I wonder why we do it. Life is so beautiful and so harrowing
She misheard me "Best friend, not boyfriend" I had to explain But I don't want to explain I want it to be true without corrections

Boyfriend

Jealousy
Perpetual loneliness Likely the fault of comparison Haunts And haunts And haunts me I can't even remember what it was like Before I felt so alone Maybe it's the same feeling And I mischaracterize it Maybe I overthink my relationships Far too much In fact I must be I FaceTime my "family" every night I went to a sleepover this weekend I saw a movie with friends as well So why do I feel so isolated? Why do I feel so unloved? What does it feel like to be loved? Even when I don't want to talk I feel the need to text people To fulfill my ideals of a "social" person I don't form close bonds Because I'm so focused on finding enough friends Enough people to laugh with So I feel like a success I wonder if I am ill This is starting to sound compulsive

Loneliness
The Neva Flows A new wind blows And soon our show will close All my new friends My new family Blowing away Ysabelle Gio Kate Eloize Keira Off to college next fall "Home, love, family" Mama sung to us in the wings She reached out her arms And we cried We bunched together And held each other When she finished she joined us How beautiful is that?

Maybe If I can't get closer to others I will pull away So my loneliness Is of my own making

Am I man enough? Am I man enough? Am I man enough to fight them off To scream, to run, to fight? I'm not So if men came for me What would I do?

Twitch Twitch Twitch All I do is twitch! It takes over my life I make faces I don’t understand My eyes squirm in my head Wink and scrunch up compulsively I make the lids peel back And fall slowly As my jaw shakes And I know I look crazy But I can't ******* stop It's not in my control Twitch Twitch Twitch All I do is twitch! It's becoming hard to function Because all I can do Is twitch

I told your mom I'm coming She said you'd be "so happy!" to see me I smiled politely And chose not to tell her That you haven't texted me back in months I don't think you're going to be "so happy" When you see me sitting in the audience As you take your first bows Without me on stage next to you But I'll be there anyway Waiting Like I have been for two years Waiting Endlessly for you to change your mind I'll smile and wave Hopefully get through an awkward "hi" And go home Knowing I will wait forever Because love doesn't just die
