What I know
I have been alive for two decades now
I have learned some valuable things.
I know that everyone has an agenda
Will tell you what you want to hear when they have something to lose.
I know that open legs don't work like cupid's arrow
He'll touch you but think of her.
I know that no amount of house liquor will fix what's broken
It might not hurt for a moment, but the sun always comes up.
I know that if you add white lines to the mix
Things really get broken.
I know that some people have bad intentions
Vulnerability in a short skirt can be too tempting.
I know that being beautiful gets you there faster than being smart
Worth-based on cup size and waist circumference, not a degree.
I know that sometimes it's not love
Just the fact that walking into dark places is easier with someone beside you.
I have been breathing for twenty years now
Learned some valuable lessons
It's too bad we never stop learning.
