I am such a horrible awful jerk
I refuse pets
I refuse animals
Because I refuse to get another
Because that feels like replacing her
And so I won't do it
But there are all these animals out there
In need of homes
To stay safe and warm and well-fed
And they're lonely
And they need love
And I am saying no to that
I am such a horrible awful jerk
I saw a photo of our band from last year
our Wind Ensemble
the intern we all fell in love with
the conductor we adore
everyone was together
and I just...
gah.
I wanted to yell STAY
Sack race
thirteenth birthday party
start of seventh grade.
My two BFFs since kindergarten,
the one that slipped in from fourth grade,
the two I met in fifth -
then of course my party girlfriends
How lucky am I?
To feel loved?
In a household and a family and a school that makes me feel not worth it
not good enough
and I found someone outside of it all who loves me?
