Count the lines and see
All I've done to me.
Self-inflicted harmony.
Count the lines
And tell on me.
For: Jenny Thoma, Huxley Densen
With pathetic attempts at empathy,
I'll try to feel what you're feeling.
Equally ineffective: sympathy,
I'll feel sorry for your situation.
'Maybe I can help,'
I say, knowing full well I can't.
It'll leave me feeling pathetic.
Over not being __pathetic.
For: Frances Lefevre
make me into your perfect girl,
molded hips and perfect, full lips
top me off with a pearl
in a pretty dress of coral

i’ll do whatever you tell me to,
or i’ll end up black and blue
bruises painted like a pretty mural,
makeup painted a perfect hue

i don’t need help,
but he needs me.
and i’ll stay by his side
until he no longer sees me
FICTIONAL BUT BASED OFF OF FRIEND'S STORIES

A poem every day.
05-11-19
We need to talk,
You two need to talk it out.
But every time I get you together,
All you do is mock.
Mock each other,
Mock yourselves.
Why can’t I get you to work things out?!
For: Huxley Densen, Jenny Thoma
Take me to the Ball.
Then trip me,
make me fall.
I’ll run and flee,
make everyone see,
how hurtful you truly are.
For: Huxley Densen, Quincy Taylor, Alistair Cadger, Sigrid Mathisen
I’ll say the wrong thing
To the completely right person
Honey, please,
That isn’t what I mean.

Stupid words,
Shallow, yet full
Full of hate and meaning
Full of negated feeling

Forget me, okay?
I don’t know what to say.
What I do know is that you’re jealous.
And now, there’s a price to pay.
For: Huxley Densen, Jenny Thoma, Quincy Taylor, Alistair Cadger
