New Voice

fast friends

i am so good
at giving advice
to anyone who needs it.
each piece of advice is tailored
to suit each person's situation.
i can give all the possible ways to fix a problem.
but when it comes to myself,
confusion and anxiety
sit with me at the table
staring at me
smiling
laughing
whispering to each other about me.
i eat my lunch while they exchange friendship bracelets.
