something about men and broken promises

i watch my father care for his chickens. he pulls grass out of the yard to feed to them. lets them roam the dog pen much to my mothers demise. it serves as a reminder that he is capable of loving something. it doesn’t always have to be me.

i’m grabbing you by the shoulders. i’m screaming. “my love for you could end a war! and you don’t care?”

life is a tornado and i am the cow being spun around for cinematic value

at the end of the day, i’m just a girl who is so willing and able to love you

i suppose i’ll always be scared to love openly. love and loss are closely intertwined. you and i are too.

in your next life, i hope you are a flea ridden, bug bitten horse, with no fence or trees to scratch yourself on

in effort to not be annoying, she became nothing at all.

it’s so crazy to me that i have to stand in rooms with him and the air between us is so heavy with unspokeness and he will never know how much i love him

maybe you don’t like me anymore but i hope your mom’s doing okay.

and suddenly all the love songs made sense again

i don’t need him but sometimes i know we’re in different places in the world, doing the exact same thing and it knocks the wind out of me

if you would’ve stayed, i would’ve told you i love you by now

if she’s too much of a handful for you, she’ll fit in another man’s hands perfectly fine

you can’t fight the giant for him.

every time i get all dressed up and listen to my cool music and engage in my own interests, im reminded how cool the girl he lost is and i get to keep her

is there an “are we dating the same man” for people who aren’t dating him anymore i just wanna see if he has a new girl and if we overlapped

it doesn’t hurt that much anymore and that hurts so much more because i used to care so much about us.

i’m talking to this guy and my mom keeps asking me “does he give you butterflies?” no he gives stomach cramps. like severe anxiety

i love when men say “you make me wanna be a better person” because it’s never followed with them actually doing it
