Therapist: “What brought you in today?”

Me: “Well, it all started when I met my mom.”

UGH OKAY SO WHAT IF HE DOESNT LIKE ME

IM TOO HOT FOR HIM ANYWAYS

I'm literally so cool you guys. I cosplay, I write, I sew, I have a stellar GPA and have my life planned out. I have a good job, and I have an amazing social life. I embroider, I read a billion books and am GOTH you guys!! I'm a goth freaking baddie!

So so what if a guy doesn't like me!

I don't need him anyways!

Eventually I'll find an amazing guy who loves me! Someone who will work with my anxiety about relationships, and understand my disabilities. Someone who will think I'm hot as fuck but not have that be the main reason they like me.

All in all, I'm a bad bitch and I don't need a man!!! (But I'd still like one eventually haha)

“Oh, April!”

April didn’t bother looking up from the report she was writing, picturing Irma’s saddened expression that she’d seen many times before.

“I take it your date didn’t go as planned?” April glanced over to Irma as she slumped down in a chair next to her.

“Not in the slightest,” Irma sighed heavily. “The guy doesn’t like brunettes, first of all. I mean, why would you judge someone based on hair color? As if that gives any hint to their personality!”

As Irma continued on, April put down her pen to center her attention on her ranting friend. On the rarest of occasions, Irma did something to make April decide that not doing work was more important.

“And another thing!” April smiled at Irma’s raise in volume. “He hates glasses! How do you hate glasses?! I would understand if it we’re like, a fashion statement, but this guy hated them just because! Well, I hate to break it to you, bozo, but me and billions of other people are just trying to see where we're going!” Irma let out her last word with a huff. “I swear, that’s the last time I trust someone to set me up on a blind date.” April laughed as Irma placed her head down on the desk in front of her.

“Tell you what, Irma,” April turned her chair in her friend’s direction and gently placed a hand on her back, “how about we go out to eat later? I’ll pay?”

“Well at least someone knows how to properly treat a lady!” April laughed again and turned back around to finish her report.

—

“I’m gonna die alone, April. I just know it.”

“Oh, don’t you start that again, Irma! You’ll find someone, I’m sure of it!”

Irma sighed yet again and nibbled on her slice of pizza (of course). The girls sat in silence as the world continued moving on around them. Irma kept her gaze out the window while April kept hers on Irma. All of a sudden, Irma’s eyes widened and she glanced toward April. “Uh,” she pointed out the window, “I think somebody’s trying to get your attention.”

April turned to her left to see a rather wide fellow with an obvious skin condition wearing a trench coat and fedora. Upon gaining the woman’s attention, the man(?) waved a three-fingered hand at her before giving her a “c’mere” motion. Had it not been for the slightly panicked look on his face she might’ve considered ignoring him.

April looked back to her friend as if to ask for her approval to leave. Irma put a hand up in a shrug and mumbled a “go”.

April got up from her seat at the booth and jogged toward the entrance of the pizza parlor. Irma heard the bell of the door ring and sighed again, somewhat unhappy that she’ll now have to wallow in misery all by her lonesome.

She decided not to pay attention to the same bell ringing again, seconds after April left. It was when Irma felt a gentle kiss pressed to her temple did she choose to come back into focus.

“I promise you won’t die alone, Irma,” April whispered comfortingly, “because I’ll always be here for you.”

She swiftly made her way to the door once more, leaving a happily shocked Irma to consider her place in life.

I keep thinking of that man again, the man I wish would leave my head. I feel like he is always there, mocking me, even though he had best wishes towards me I think. He's confusing. I want to stop thinking of him so I am manifesting this. I am and I refuse to keep thinking of that selfish, kind, disgusting, ugly man. He can rot in hell for all I care just as he wishes for me. He ruined my life. I cannot have him in my life anymore.

The boy I mistaken for a man

You came like thunder to my heart, that light left me blind for 6 months and the buzzing in my ears still persisted long after you left

You pose like this bigger person that knows it all, you're above any human feelings since those things can make you realize the depressed life you live; so you chose to be a coward in all meanings; I can't believe I gave you my feelings in a silver platter that afternoon, just so that by night you'll could refuse yourself to give me some sincerity; The man that was always better than me couldn't even be cruel enough to say a word. And you didn't even realized how much worse it was, and you'll never will.

I didn't understand first when Lana sang: "If you're on fire you should just keep burning" for me it was about how I should give a chance to that passion that I was feeling after a really long time, so that I could feel the heat in those cold nights filled with smoke; But now I get it, it was you that was on fire not me... and you should just keep burning in the reckless way you do. Because if your flame really is that much brighter than mine, than go ahead...

keep burning. consume completely all your fuel and spend your thirties wiped out, that's really you, a thunder than only really shows up for half a second at night
