So you hold me close
And I’ve thought about that afternoon
You hold me too tight
And I’m not able to give you love or offer love
I’m resigned to the fact that you despise me
For some reason
I trigger something in you that finds me so repulsive…
And I can only draw you now in naked form
Your breasts have eyes that I can’t escape from
I had learned to live alone
So it’s ok if you’d like to
I’ll swipe left before you even think about it
It’s rude to say anything
Mutually assured loneliness.
