I know her (plural)
I know him (plural)
I know them
She knows me (plural)
He knows me (plural)
They know me
Everyone is conversing
Everyone is eating
Sipping
Everyone is laughing
We share the same blood
We share the same yard
We share similar sentiments
However
I feel strange
Feeling awkward in this picture
When I'm alone I feel better
Less strange
More free
Maybe
It's growth
It's loath
All I know it's not loathe

I spent last night
Crunching numbers

10
Times you led me on

9
Nights we stayed up talking

8
Weeks since you decided I wasn’t worth it

7
Crushed up poems on the floor of my room

6
Outfits thrown aside to make sure I look my best

5
Days I spent trying to get over you

4
Friends that know what we did

3
3 a.m FaceTime calls

2
Coats of mascara

1
Big regret
