I have bigger fish to fry
by Florence Susanne
“I care more about you than you think.”
I should fucking hope so.
Because I don't think you care about me at all.
I think you're incredible at pretending, when caring about me could potentially make you look like a decent enough person.
I'm like your emotional charity case.
You get points for simulating giving a shit.
But there’s something you forgot.
I have feelings.
Feelings hurt by more pressing matters at hand than you simply ignoring me.
Worries going deeper than the fear of losing you.
And hey, maybe if you realized that women aren’t just your little playthings and that your Sun is not what our Earth revolves around,
maybe you wouldn’t be alone at night wondering
“Why does everyone leave?”
