following a trail
single footsteps
generations of generation

always following
up to and including
the end.

I fell in love with him,
Cause the way he laughed,
That's what I needed in my life,
Instant therapy.

A soulmate would be great,
but at some point I'd settle
for someone who gets back to text messages

I am only a draft
I am not meant to feel this cold
I am not black
I am not white
I am made of my colorful mistakes and typos
I am sorry you feel the need
to delete me and start over

pick a side
pick a side
pick a side

like sports teams
like equations
like war

pick a label
pick a gender
pick an orientation

what the hell
do we need sides for?

i'm on the side of acceptance
i'm on the side of love
i'm on the side of no sides

maybe one day that will be enough
