It doesn't matter That our eyes didn't meet When we passed in the hall That they sat somewhere else While I looked straight ahead And laughed too loud With all their old friends It doesn't matter That we only talk when they want to We flirt in careless circles If you could even call it that We hit a rough patch I should leave you behind For those that care who I really am It doesn't matter That I always end up Close to crying I ought to get you out of my mind But you remembered my birthday And the pronouns my friend told you Why did I ruin this Why did I ruin this

It doesn't matter That our eyes didn't meet When we passed in the hall That they sat somewhere else While I looked straight ahead And laughed too loud With all their old friends It doesn't matter That we only talk when they want to We flirt in careless circles If you could even call it that We hit a rough patch I should leave you behind For those that care who I really am It doesn't matter That I always end up Close to crying I ought to get you out of my mind But you remembered my birthday And the pronouns my friend told you Why did I ruin this Why did I ruin this
I'm pretty sure I already named a poem after this Imagine Dragons song. Oh well.
