Just another boy

You say

But you don't understand

I want him to be

Just another boy

Because if he is just another boy

It shouldn't hurt this much

When he says

Are you sure you don't like anyone else

And all I can think

Is that

Of course not

Because I'm in love with you

You bastard

I want these tears to fucking dry

And him to be just another boy

And my heart not to have puncture wounds

From other peoples words

But none of those will happen

So I will compartmentalise

I will move on

And I will say

If it makes him happy

I'm happy
