Sad Things That Aren't Sad At All

- unopened notifications

- volume as low as possible because i know if i drown out the sounds my resolve will crumble

- unread message: 2 months ago

- pillow flipped over because the other side is soaked in tears

- trash bin overflowing with tissues used to wipe away contempt

- bookmarks in every book because it's hard to focus and enjoy something for longer than a few minutes

- i want to wash the grease off of me but it makes me feel heavy and i am chained to the floor

- 'i want this but i don't think i deserve it so i forget about it'

maybe it's something you just can't outgrow
