breakups

I think that maybe I take breakups

And half-breakups

And “I think we should just stay friends”

And “I’m moving across the country!”

And “Let’s just pretend it never happened…”

And “Sorry, I’m already doing something else that night”

so horrifically,

and yet so horrifically well,

Because life in my head

Is constantly romancing

And then breaking up

With everyone.

Written on a whim. Accidentally, actually, while writing a blog post.

Written for.... everyone.

Today it is for the restraint to have just one beer and then a spiced tea.
