Preferring blue to green
to you is the same as preferring her to me
I don’t know if you can tell but I can see what you’re doing
It hurts but I try not to care
Why should I?
It’s not like I’m your first born
The reason you are a father in the first place
The one killing herself for the top grades
Eating herself to death to fill a hole you left behind
That doesn’t matter
No, not to you
Why would it?
I mean it’s no different from preferring sunny days to rainy days
It’s not like whenever you call I’m covering for her telling you she isn’t home
Because she doesn’t want to speak to you
Not like that at all
Because I don’t care
I really don’t not even a little bit
So continue to prefer her because I can tell you one thing
She sure as hell doesn’t prefer you
