notes to self:
-you thought you ought to get drunk to be brave
but you just ought to get drunk to be straight
-loving boys isn't a box in your to-do-list
just before the house, wedding, and two or three kids
-loving boys isn't a story as old as time
where fairy tale magic appears in your own life
-loving boys isn't fireworks in your tummy
nor struggling to breathe nor crippling anxiety
-loving boys isn't settling for a nice guy
who makes you feel normal while you drown in your lie
-loving boys isn't going to be easier
by learning cheat codes and training to get better
-you don't know what loving boys is if not a game
whose tricks kiss and fuck you before they dig your grave
-but know that loving boys shouldn't be unquestioned
and loving girls isn't your small consolation
