Smile to myself tonight
Sitting in darkness
Playing with the fire on the candle
That reminds me of how much getting too close can hurt.
Listening to stories of people
How angry I’ve made them
Over the past few months
Just being the person I am.
I have no tears tonight
No sense of regret
Nothing.
Fears run through me
Like a fat kid running from a diet.
Oh, did I make you angry again?
Oops.
I did it again.
