What would I do without me?

Lucky that I don’t know

By Ariana GonBonPublished about a year ago • 1 min read

I wouldn’t defend myself

I wouldn’t have left

I wouldn’t have loved more

I also wouldn’t have loved for so long

I wouldn’t pick at my lips

I wouldn’t paint my nails

I wouldn’t sing to myself in the car

I wouldn’t express myself

I wouldn’t laugh at my ridiculousness and enjoy it

I would stop moving my hands

I would stop creating

I would stop loving

I would stop worrying

I wouldn’t write poems about myself

~~I wouldn’t think about all of you~~

I wouldn’t be my own

30yo bi Xicana. There's always more to write about, in more interesting ways than white men.
