I Used To Think The Worst Case Scenario  would Be You Decided You Disliked The Real Me But Your Apathy

Try not to think of me when you are alone

Try not to think of me when she won’t do those things for you

Try not to think of me when you are tired of forcing your round psyche into her square hole

Try not to think of me when you realize you can’t find happiness pretending to be someone you’re not

Try not to think of me because I am trying not to think of you

Try not to think of me

You spin me around

like we're pinning the tail on the donkey

Yesterday this, tomorrow that

contradictions and half-truths

Until I'm dizzy and can barely walk straight

and you end up with a tail on your forehead

I know better I just ache for it so deeply I am willing to risk my sanity

My heart needed a voice

There is more than one path to being a Good Human Being™
