All Monsters Are Human
{Artwork by Tess Emily Rodriguez} It’s not you It’s me A trigger of splits and halves I try to convey what I want to say And end up with a laugh I understand exactly what you mean Sometimes a little too well Which in turn puts me in my feelings Giving way for no show … Continue reading mixed signals
Hey love! Are you okay? You look amazing! How was you day? Did you get enough sleep? Do you need any money? Have you had anything to eat? You want to talk about it, honey? I’m here if you need me. I just wanted to hang with you. I’ve missed these conversations. Seeing you is … Continue reading Three Words In Disguise
I tried to love you under the radar I was unsuccessful even then Depsite failing myself humiliatingly I convinced them the truth was what I knew was pretend I stayed up many countless nights Counting the silhouettes of stars on my ceiling And in the end I found myself wondering About all the possible things … Continue reading Still
I’ve always wondered if that’s specifically what Rant implied. It doesn’t bother me or make me upset in any kind of way. My friends are an acquired taste and I’m glad to see that there are people that they genuinely like and are interested in (because oh dear God they’re difficult, 😅😬 but then again … Continue reading Does Rant Imply It Bothers Me

I found myself thinking of my guy friends, wanting to talk to them and hear them talk back. Their advice always sans judgment.
