And it's alright
It's alright
You're alright
Alright?
Alright.
You don't have to do a thing
You don't have a thing to worry
To think
To talk
To cry about
Anymore.
One new date
And then a pause
And then you realize it's not going
To happen
Again
And for the first time
In years.
Do you feel sick
For Valentine's Day
For what the month February becomes
A slut
A whore
Something unhappy
Unloveable
Unloved
Unheard
Intangible
Desperate
Foolish
Alone
Depressed
An extroverted introvert
And then you love
And you see love
And you hear love
And you love
But are loved
But are loved
But not loved
Not loved
Not love
It was not love
Never love.
And it's time for you to pretend
And pretend again
And pretend again
And pretend again
And to stop pretending
Pretending
Defending
Offsetting
Depressing
Debating
Obsessing
To stop pretending that everything's alright
Alright?
And you expose love
Expose happiness
Expose interest
Expose your bruised skin
Skin that's been torn and broken and bruised
And where you died
And rot
And became dust
But you're alright.
That shell
That shell she'll never be
That shell she knows she'll never be
Be lonely
Be sad
Be crying
She
She unlike any other
She will be loved
She will be loved and cared for
And protected
And happy
And she will be loved
She will be loved as she is loved
And loved
And loved
And in love
Love
Because love
Because she is loved.
