so there i was—trying to impress this girl by making homemade pizza and thought i’d be clever adding extra garlic because i LOVE garlic—but i ended up inhaling some while trying to toss the dough and instead of charming her i just ended up sneezing all over the dough and knocking the whole pizza off the counter into the floor.
my mom said she wished she never had me during one of our classic arguments and honestly, now it just echoes in my brain every time i burn toast or forget to fold laundry, like my own personal soundtrack of failure that i didn't even audition for. funny how that can ruin a meal and an entire childhood at the same time, right?
i forgot to eat all day and only realized when my head started pounding - it just feels so awful to think about how i could let it get that bad. maybe that is how easily i get lost in my thoughts, or maybe i just don’t care enough to pay attention to myself anymore.

i sometimes scroll through my old social media photos and pretend i am still that person who felt alive, but the truth is i feel so far away from her now that it makes me want to cry just remembering what it was like to have dreams and not just wake up to another empty day.
