pretend vs. grown
kid pretending to be grown:
i go to a nice restaurant and order sweet and sour chicken
i'm riding bicycles now, but its a bright neon fixie and i dont have a helmet
i allow tepid friendships more energy than called for
i know how to make everyone laugh...well, except for the person i'm making fun of
i will compromise myself to show how eager i am to accommodate others
i'll meet you in the middle of a challenging conversation as long as i'm not making myself vulnerable
i make big decisions by picking the most shocking one
i speak the truth, but i speak it best with sarcasm
i do want to know what's at the heart of the matter at hand, mainly so i can prove its not my fault.
grown up kid:
i enjoy creating a new space i can return to
my outlook will only be as good as my inlook
skate, read, bike, cook, work, organize, sip, breathe
i will trust a liar before being a skeptic of love
i accommodate myself in order to accompany others
i keep my needs in check, so they're neither dismissed nor projected
i use shelves for the functionality and the aesthetic.
when i can't be present, i won't pretend to be.
i reach my sweetest moment i can offer when trusting the creativity i've always had
the only expectation i put on my relationships is if for them to continually transform
i recognize shape and sound in the negative space and rests.
i'm the funniest when i am mentally naked!
