I sat and watched you play around in the park
I guess you liked the feel of sand
You were building those castles
When a wind swept by my hair
And your piece came tumbling down
I stood up and went by your side
I said
“There, there
Don’t worry, little brother
The world could be against you
But no matter what you do
I’ll stay by your side.”
And I hugged you tight
That’s when you cried
You don’t have to be nice
Or wise
Or kind
I’d still love you
It’s not something I can take back at any price
I still broke you
I’m not sure if I can love myself anymore
Not that I ever did before
Maybe love isn’t something I know enough
I’m wearing makeup, makeup, makeup
Can you even love yourself?
Or do you just pretend until you burn the memories
So take a deep breath
Try not to choke myself
Don’t hang me when I’m dead
“MARI, you’re nice
And wise
And kind
So how do you do all of that?”
SUNNY, there’s a simple explanation
I’m none of those things
