I wish nobody poked these holes
At the top of this goddamn jar
I never knew
I never knew
That you're my least favorite part

To have the worst in you glorified
By fucks who only care
When you’re sad or if you cried
Positive reinforcement for feeling suicidal?
For wishing I was dead?
Why didn't you ask if I was okay instead?
