Happy
What does happy feel like
A heart battered girl asks her close friend
It feels like everything else
Is all her friend says
It can’t be that heart battered girl thought
It mustn’t feel like tear stained pillows
It can’t feel like an unfed stomach
Or soul crushing thoughts
It can’t feel like legs, wrist, thighs, and hips that have turned into battle grounds
But if it’s true it means that what I want to grow up to be
Is a lie
