please don't HATE YOU

Location

a friend's party
somewhere in california
United States

came to the house early

my first house party

first of the twelfth month

stayed long after it was done

 

after the first handshake, the thought of me was a flake

unwanted unneeded

extroverted NOT ME

CANT BALL CANT SHOOT CANT TALK

CANT SPEED, just read

walking circles talking mumbles

creeper, stranger, banger

SHE KNOWS YOURE WATCHING HER

 

BECAUSE I DONT TALK

whose fault would be

anyone else OTHER THAN ME

its okay guy.

they want to know you

 

put yourself out.

go out.

the man loneliest is loudest.

howl, cackle, live.

 

ask for a number

before realitys back in motion

did they reply?

didn't they?

care not.

hey.

 

youre free to go either way.

your free time is you.
