I've considered everything.
I'm not blind to the consequences, and I've made my peace
with that.
Pants are an illusion. And so is death.

Hold your breath 'cause he's not coming
He's never been the punctual type
He might never show at all
"Gotta keep you on your toes," but
But what happens if you leave before he gets here

You're tired of waiting for a man that never shows
You're tired of waiting - and this, everyone knows
Except him. Apparently he's ignorant of this,
But that's not surprising since he's never here to ask

Save your breath 'cause he doesn't care
He only shows up when he wants to be there
Which just goes to show that it isn't a lot
Since he only tries when he sees you might go

You're tired of hoping that he'll ever change
All of these years and he's still stayed the same
"Unrealistic expectations" are more than enough
To convince you that you should save your breath
And stop waiting
Pants are an illusion. And so is death.

Aaah thank you @WritingWolf!!! ;u;
Pants are an illusion. And so is death.

  








Surround yourself with people who are serious about being writers, and who will tell you, ‘Hey—you can do better than this.’ Who will be critical of your work, but also supportive. And who will not be competitive in a negative way.
