It's best if you pretend you never knew me

It's best you keep your distances from me

Don't love me, please

Don't compliment me

Don't comfort me

Don't be kind to me

I will only get attached

And I will end up crying

And

Don't tell me I'm beautiful

Nothing ends well after those words leave someone's mouth and to my ears for my ears

I will only say "you're a liar"

And no one ever leaves it at that

And then I will be yelling

Crying out why you're so wrong

So very wrong
