White Suit
When I told my boyfriend I wanted to wear a suit to the dance-
"What? Why?"
"I'll look badass, that's why."
"But... I like to see you in a dress."
Well, by the time homecoming rolls around-
Guess who's single?
Me.
Guess who was asked by the same guy who offered to lend me a tie?
Me.
Guess who looked hot as hell in that suit?
Me, that's who.

“honor the friendships that allow you to pick up from where you last left off, regardless of how long it’s been since you connected. the friendships that survive hiatuses, silences and space. those are the connections that never die.”

Misstep
You were a great boyfriend.
Really.
I just wasn't the forever you wanted me to be.
All you ever wanted was to grow up,
go to school,
and marry your high school sweetheart.
We were only sixteen.
We were promising forevers that weren't ours to give.
I was in love with you, and
I was darker when I was with you.
I was so anxious all the time with you.
I always knew it wouldn't last, but you so wanted it to.
And I loved you.
Premature.
I think that's the word for our relationship.
I told you I didn't have feelings for you anymore.
That wasn't true then- it is now.
I told you I didn't love you anymore
so that you'd hurt less.
I knew if I told you,
"I love you, but I'm ending it"
you would've cried more.
You would've asked why.
You would've had false hope.
And your tears had already burned like acid.
I never wanted to hurt you.
I wanted you to undestand.
I found myself. That's why I ended it.

“the most beautiful connections celebrate your authenticity and encourage you to be less performative, they find ways of applauding your entire existence even when you’re unable to show up as your full self, they shed light in your lowest moments so you can see yourself clearly.”
