I wish I could be blind.
Just for tonight
So I could stop myself from reading words that cut me when they shouldn’t
So I could force myself to no longer see the lines that make me doubt what I know.
I swear I’m not psychotic. I just need to take a break from seeing, reading, imagining.

I wish I was Jared, 19
Illiterate as **** and not crying into my pillow.
