You called me your female friend
Does that mean
We're still friends?
After all this time?
We're still friends?
You still have the pictures of us with our friends
Hanging in your room, from grade school
Does that mean
We're still friends?
After all this time?
We're still friends?
We had this moment of banter
It was short
But it was something I needed
Something I needed
In order to show myself
That you don't hate me
In order to show myself
That those things I have told myself
Aren't true
So maybe, just maybe,
The other things I have told myself
Aren't true either
Maybe
You aren't meant to disrupt my learning
To love myself
But maybe,
You are meant to help me learn
To love myself
