'we're kindred souls',
you said i make you whole,
i stretch a smile,
convince myself you're real,

you fiddle with my skin,
coddle my heart,
i stretch a smile,
you're real, you're real, you're real.

i was quiet, polite, gullible,
what i was,
was a child.
i knew it,
you're real.

your interest flickered,
buzzed around a new body,
'i'll call you later babe'
you're real...
right?

i made pillowforts with my pain,
a home for you to come back,
a bed for you to sleep in,
a heart for you to hold,
'something came up, i'll be late. don't wait up, love you'
you're real... please. you're real.

fuck.
you're not real.
