muddy toes, sour attitude
adolescence and pink scars
the whites of your eyes like wet opals
a mug so hot it burns your hands
i pick at the cracks in our wooden kitchen table.
i think i’ll stay in bed all day
nobody told me 13 would be so ugly
so tangled
you make me disappointed in myself, head down
outside is orange, i can hear the water running and i wonder if you’re doing dishes
i wonder if you wish i’d turned out different
other than this
i haven’t done wrong since
