I AM JUDGMENTAL
BECAUSE I FEEL ENTITLED
TO BE ABLE
TO LOOK AS STABLE
AS PUT TOGETHER
AS CLAM
AS YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS

I JUDGE YOU BECAUSE THINESELF HATH BEEN JUDGED HER WHOLE LIFE BY PEOPLE LIKE THOU


they say all this hatred is what weighs be down.
i think it's the only thing keeping me up.

Decency

For Chris from OKcupid.

It doesn't matter what we had
or what we didn't
It's the little things
Like a response
A notice
Just a heads up
About the success for futility
A little acknowledgement would be nice
You don't have to be nice
But you can make the effort
If I can make the effort
of letting you see my vulnerability
