Here are some things you need to know before dating me
One, there is a strong chance the only reason I am talking to you is because I believe you might be a Scorpio
Two, Your last partner was a Gemini and I swear I'm not holding this against you
Three, Sometimes I feel like I'm all the pigeons trapped inside all the subway stations in all of New York
Four, Woah excuse me I am not "New Agey" I am a witch
Five, I always wear this necklace that has the Virgin Mary on it even though I'm an Atheist.
Six, Sometimes I open up my phone and when I see there are no new text I get a little happy
Seven, Today my therapist lead me in a breathing exersize, and when I exhaled, I suddenly remembered I was inside an actual human body and cried so much that I canceled all future appointments
Eight, I have a PHD in talking to the moon
Nine, My job skills include living alone on a farm and letting the horses make my decisions
Ten, I like long walks on the beach, directly into the bottom of the ocean
Eleven, All I ever did my whole life was listen to music and wait for one misery after another
Twelve, The worst thing you can do to me is tell me there was nothing wrong because I seem so happy
Thirteen, Yes I know I'm a chicken nugget made of crazy
Fourteen, Sometimes I let my phone die and I envy it
Fifteen, Last night I ate the best Chinese food I've had in years, then i stuck my fingers down my throat
Sixteen, I'm not sure how much longer I can do this
Seventeen, Despite my best efforts I am real
Eighteen, Don't you dare try and figure me out. Too many people have claimed they can read me like a book and went and put me on a shelf
Nineteen, Don't ever ask me if I'm hungry because 99.9% of the time I am and I don't want to be reminded
Twenty, My bed is a black hole that I can not climb out of. It took me months to be here but I can feel myself craving for that feeling again. You see it is too dangerous for people like me to know that kind of emptiness. All that nothing trapped inside of my stomach. I promise, I promise you everyday I'm trying to teach myself to let go and forget how it feels, but I love being empty.
