My story is just like everyone else's:
My story is just like everyone else's
I too fell in love.
I too killed myself just to feel
something other than this emotion.
I too sought destruction just to feel
something less vapid and bound
by confusion.
I too crawled the depths of despair with
salty and arrogant tears,
knowing full well my own
insolence brought me here.
I too walked a maudlin mile,
questioning and answering, remembering
and reasoning, dilapidated
and sauntering and
squandering the path of acceptance.
I too lost the thread, unravelled
the ball, let it roll
uncontrolled down the hill
without thought.
I too traded good sense just to taste
something virile and draped
in smugness.
I too fooled myself just to taste
something other than quiet devotion.
I too fell in love.
My story is just like yours
