Today (in the Hiatus)

Today, by Cara Stray - Summer 2018

I met you up with you today and had nothing to say

nothing of note

I kept thinking

What if there are secrets in your life,

the way there are in mine,

then we barely know each other.

Only one of us can be holding back.

There is only room for one false person in a relationship

and I call dibs

I got home and felt sick for hours

I was trying to get rid of the thoughts that make me feel bad

about everything I do

You see, this is a scary time in my life

and we talked about pringles.
