your_heart_can_hurt

My friend said something today.

Struck me dumb. My only choice to laugh it off, make jokes.

Possibly be passive-aggressive... 

We were talking... I asked if she liked a Friends-to-lover's couple

I fear that I lied to you, straight to your face

When you looked me in the eyes and asked

If I was ok, how I was doing

And I lied, straight to your face

To be a woman,

you have to mask your flaws.

A little girl, upset at the world-

"you're fine," her mother says.

That girl, now eleven,

is picked on by her peers.

"You're fine," her mother says.
