high school
ok bestie
you had a rough day? no time? hanging with them?
sure, girl. i totally believe that
i almost came to school today
through red eyes and fever
only to ensure that you wouldn't abandon me
i don't even like you that much, to be honest
but my closest friend is in italy
and i can't bear to eat lunch alone
she warns me, from rome
that you manipulated her
i knew this, have seen the havoc you've wreaked
after claiming to "not like drama"
i ask myself if i should reject you first
to save myself the trouble
but i am too nice, i think
at least that quality has never hampered you
