Living ironically

I am art

I'm afraid of crocodiles and never falling in love.
I love stepping on crunchy leaves and feeling like I'm enough.
I like being independent and staying up late on the phone.
I like making people laugh and sometimes I think I'll end up alone.
I love shy smiles that belong to wise faces.
I romanticize pain and far away places.
I don't need anyone who doesn't need me.
I can't remember the last time I was innocently happy.
