i tried to look through your eyes today at me, me, the girl who trusted you, (who trusts you, maybe...) i saw a girl who sat, almost at your feet for God's sake, and let words pour out of my mouth like i was throwing up last nights dinner, because i hadn't eaten that night and i saw a girl who couldn't face the mirror, because she doesn't know how to act around strangers there was a girl who made me sad, made me wish i could take all the pain away i saw a girl who was constantly HIDING (no, i was just... okay, maybe i was hiding) in too big sweaters and buns, long sleeves and leggings dear GOD, its nearly 90 degrees outside, why are you wearing long sleeves? because she has squiggly ink on her arms she doesn't want you to see oh, oh but i figured it out she wears these things because she's hiding this is what you see- you see me, like nobody else ever has r.c.
