How come?

Are you aware

what you did?

For the third time?

Once again?

Do you know

how I feel?

Ignored

overlooked

how come?

How come you didn't put in my effort?

How come every time I try, my hard work is not included?

It's absolutely not my fault

I know that

but it's most definitely yours.

Do you know

how much time it took for me to do that?

Do you know

how frustrated I got over it

my only beacon was people enjoying it?

I'm not trying to guilt trip you about this

you should be guilty enough on your own.

    It's December already

    I've been alive for over thirteen years

    over thirteen years of learning and growing

    making mistakes and accomplishing feats

    of finding myself and uncovering layers in not only myself

  • Best friend

    Your new-ish house

    your dog sleeping on the rug

    my family and your family chatting comfortably

    your kitchen with your hot chocolate

    the fun spinny stools at the kitchen island

    that's one of my happy places
