The Four Letter Contract
I just wanted someone to value me.
Is that too much to ask?
To be there for me, through my mid-youth crisis,
And not drop me on my ass?
I guess it is too much to ask.
Really.
It is.
They say that hurt people hurt people.
Then what do lost people do?
Do they lose people?
I asked for something strong,
But what I recieved was brittle,
And as mystically elusive
As Harry Style's fourth nipple.
I once wished upon a star for any semblance of stability.
All I recieved was another dose of humility.
A hit on my ability ot retain my tranquility.
I unplugged my ears to hear to roaring futility!
IT'S FRUSTRATING!... this thing we call love.
We give 7,000 emotions one name.
I love cereal. I love God.
Are these two words really one in the same?
xoxo luv ya :)
Girl, I love you!
Love you, too, mom.
I love you.
I love comma insert name.
I love you, too comma insert name.
Together, we sign this four letter contract,
Yet, our terms and conditions are not the same.
