boot straps

pick yourself up girl
get on with it
ain’t nobody give a fuck
no more
about your april into may

blossoms fell like snake-skinned chinks in armor
each petal representing new fears
upon the still dewy strewn lawn
in the people’s square
carving
into every inch of my

leave the light on
let me park on the fucking wood
where is your humanity
exactly
i never said you could

so aggressive they say
intense
expectant
stop wanting
us to be what you want us to be
or we’ll give you nothing
see
that’s just how it’s going to be

no one is willing to give you what you want
what you need
asking, always
way too much

you are flawed
damaged
no man can want you
not with that
P E R S O N A L I T Y

dishin’ it out
never can take it

eggshells
eggshells
why can’t you let me react the way i need too
worse has happened

can’t keep it straight
taking care of everyones problems

pull them up high
never let them see you cry
share nada
and
ask for nothing
for if you do
maybe
just maybe
I’ll let you still hang with me
