Sort of familiar

It's sort of familiar

You next to me

I can't tell if it's me being familiar to you

How you feel beside me

Or familiar to

Being pressed against someone on a couch

(this has happened to me a lot)

Or familiar to

Having someone I like

Love

Next to me on a couch

I don't know

But it's sort of familiar

The way your hand feels

Your knuckles

Fingertips

It's sort of familiar

Because I'm sort of used to it

Though I doubt if the jolt will ever not happen

I know this is my familiarity to you

Because I've never done this with anyone else

Aside from friends

It's sort of familiar now

Safe

Comforting

It's sort of familiar

You are

To me

Familiar

    Cornered

    I put my hands up

    Like you taught me

    Only now

    You're the one attacking

    "Helping" because

    You "just want me to feel better"

    And I braced for impact

  • Distracted and angry

    I'm distracted.

    Why did I let myself become so reliant

    Dependent

    So stupid

    Ugh I'm so mad.

    So mad.

    I let myself become distracted by silly things I could want

    I let myself want them
