#misheard
At a party
I asked you what you thought of me
Over the music, you told me
"Jenny says cry"
It sounded foreign in a way I couldn't place
And I sat there with an expression you didn't recognize
I don't know anyone named Jenny
but she's right
nonetheless

I reached inside myself and found
My friend there to ease the
Pressure of my ever worrying mind*

This was never meant to hurt you.
It was a simple miscommunication,
a stumble of words.
"Words" can be so easily misspelled to say "swords,"
and swords can impale.
I suppose words can, too.
