Why can’t you be soft?
Why can’t you be sensitive
The way you simply don’t care
I’m clinging to your sentences
You don’t wear a costume
You don’t wear a mask
You’re brutally honest every time I ask
You’re the brilliant boy from that drama class
I just keep letting you hurt me
Bringing you to hurt me
Inviting the pain
Can’t listen to my brain
You know I’m going to do it again
You’re so rough
You’re just so insensitive
You’re too honest
I can’t ignore your sentences
I’ll just keep my costume
And I’ll keep my mask
I’ll put them on so I’m okay every time you ask
You’re the deadpan boy from that drama class

And to anyone else?
Ah well that’s for you to decide! Thanks for taking the time to read! 🙂
I prefer polished pieces with the aim of communicating something to the reader.
Enjoy your stay at MPS and let us know a little more about who you are.
Thanks for your feedback! I’ll aim for something more direct next time I post. I appreciate it greatly!
