At The End


At the end of the day it’s the one who knows which gas station beverage you want
At the end of the day it’s the one who got you through your hardest classes, even when they weren’t taking it
At the end of the day it’s the one whose shoes annoy you
At the end of the day it’s the one who buys the best gum and shares it with you
At the end of the day it’s the one that you keep sending the same $20 back and forth with
At the end of the day it’s the one whose front seat is your second home
At the end of the day it’s the one who you share successes with
At the end of the day it’s the one who consoles you after the losses
At the end of the day it’s the one who speaks your language
At the end of the day it’s the one who chose to still come over even though your floor looked a lot like your brain
At the end of the day it’s the one who knows every detail about you
At the end of the day it’s the one who can trace your love life like ridges on their palm
At the end of the day it’s the one who you keep coming back to
At the end of the day it’s the one who blindly supports you in everything
At the end of the day it’s the one who fuels your delusions 
At the end of the day it’s the one who comforts you when they shatter
At the end of the day it’s the one who weathers the storm
At the end of the day, it’s you

  • Theology

    Religion is girlhood

    God is a teenage girl screaming the names of the people she used to love at the sky

    Worship is dancing and celebrating while still being upset

  • My Childhood Home

    My childhood home is filled with plants,

    plants that we never water

    but are somehow still alive.

    Its island is littered with junk mail,

    different types of olive oil,

    stray flakes of salt,

  • Mirror, Mirror

    When you are a teenager,
    Every mirror is a kaleidoscope.
    It is rare that you will see just one image of yourself,
    But many fragmented pieces staring back at you.
    We never know who we are, because what we see isn’t true.
