What I feel

I can write about:

funny things

hopeful things

cheeky, uplifting,

nothing

cruel,

no stories that aren’t mine to tell.

Honestly, I don’t want to bum you out.

I tell the truth, but selectively,

as safety net.

What want to write now

is everything, and what I believe

is that you want to handle it.
