trust no one
i drank water that night. guzzled is more like it. i laughed until i thought for sure i would puke. you were the best company, being so kind as to bestow a gift upon me. one single red rose, which if i’m being honest was quite hackneyed, but cute nonetheless. we danced the night away. time flew, miraculously. that song i adore came on. we danced some more, and all would have been perfect had you not whipped out your handy dandy switchblade. destination: my heart. i fell, barely conscious. blood protruded from the wound. you laughed and scurried away. that was the day i learned to trust no one. people won’t hesitate to let you down.
twisted logic
the fact that mental illnesses take so many lives and continue to be stigmatized is mind blowing. a depressed individual contemplating suicide is not going to benefit from the phrase ‘kill yourself’ being thrown around like it’s nothing. some people need a good old fashioned dose of empathy. until something changes minorities are going to continue to feel alienated. encourage others!
smile because it happened
i hope you’re satisfied knowing i take a circuitous path home, strategically avoiding yours because it’s too painful. that encounter of ours bled me dry. i am numb, emotionless, and outcast. static occupies the entirety of my body. it clogs my mind, blinds my eyes, and deafens my ears. you have gutted me and buried my severed corpse with the same shovel. but i have to give you some credit. there’s no denying that you were my saving grace. before i met you i’d been drowning for what felt like an eternity, and you threw me a lifeline. you set a flame to my darkest days, and it’s a shame all fires must extinguish. i want to thank you not because you let me down, but because you’re the reason i’m alive today. our friendship did not last. maybe that’s for the best.
