I've never had someone want me this little-
or at least act like it.
It's making me sour.
I fear,
from this anger,
I'm going to burst open like a rotting fruit.
Out of nowhere,
I'm going to say things to purposely hurt you.
Things such as:
"I understand now why she cheated on you-
you never give enough.
She had to find it elsewhere and I'm about to too."
But I hope writing my thoughts here and biting my lip will keep everything inside me instead.
