failure
Your ass got flatter;
my hair is shorter.
You're still wearing the chain I gave you.
I gifted the hoodie you got me last summer
to my little sister. Two years younger, she
doesn't understand the pain I am going through.
She wants to help but doesn't know how so she
wears the hoodie for you, different from the way I did.
She does it to rub shit in, to spread salt, and
to laugh at your claimed failure.
I wore it for a false love everyone warned me about.
I hope you don't ever get the approval you have been after.
