It's Just Not Me



Be yourself.

By all means.

If being yourself means hurting people

if that’s what lets you sleep at night

then it’s not for me to say it should be any other way.

Just know this:

being hurt is not who I am.

I’m sure you’ll find a willing vessel

someone for whom being hurt by you feels familiar,

maybe even like home.

It’s just not me.

Cheers 🥂
