you said-
thinking about the stars
makes me feel so small


but we sat there 'til we
were shaking in the cold,
and i had never felt
bigger.

i am done with being
strong; i am not an earthquake
or a hurricane, and this is not
natural, just a disaster

i want to collapse,
i want to relax,
i want to relapse
what am i even saying anymore? idk, i'm just sad

he told me about how ***** his family's money was
stocks under the table and
overcharging black girls
to pull out their babies

i told him he didn't reflect that at all,
and he said he tried to keep his head out of the clouds
as if what i'd said
had been a compliment
as if it wasn't my way of saying
he was too boring
to have a story like that.

for him
is when we argue.

i swear to god,
every bit of my body
is crying
besides my eyes.
there's anguish inside me.
