i sobbed in front of my phone,

friendship ended, just like that 

then i heard my mother calling from downstairs

calling for me to eat dinner

as i wiped my moist yet dried up tears,

walking downstairs 

like a happy little child

but i wasn't happy inside

i ate my dinner, acting like as if i didn't just break down earlier

it's funny

because the people whom i ate dinner with

thought that i was pretty good and alright

because i was like a broken doll in a box 

that's wrapped in pretty, polka-dot paper
