remember this feeling
When you feel lonely
Remember this feeling
When you miss him
Remember this feeling
When you decide you can handle it
Remember this feeling
When you want to feel beautiful
Remember this feeling
When you wonder if he’s with her
Remember this feeling
Because you should never have to feel like that
And he should never be allowed to let you feel like that
And you should never allow yourself to feel like this
Remember that you regret it
Remember that what you want isn’t sweat and skin it’s love
And you will never find that in the back of a stranger’s throat or on their tongue
Or in the way they say fuck
Remember that this didn’t make you feel beautiful
Remember that you were bored
Remember that you had to wash your sheets and brush your hair before you could look anybody in the eye
And brush your teeth before you could look at yourself
Remember that weird thing he did with his tongue
When he asks you if you’re busy don’t lie
Tell him no
But don’t fill up your free time with his fingers or lips
When you feel lonely
Remember that you didn’t like it
