so maybe he doesn't like me

i wasn't friendzoned

but the thing he called me

seemed worse


"just a band person"

how does that matter?

how do i matter?

does this mean i was wrong?


all the stolen glances

all the taken chances

was that not love?

or anything close to like?


it feels like i've just been broken up with

but the truth is we never dated

i just imagined a world where you loved me

until your words caused it all to shatter


"it's weird when band kids date"


then why do the only guys who

make me like myself play instruments

maybe i just have a type, but it still

hurts when it doesn't work



ok, so this work is definitely a bit embarrassing. this is about a guy that i liked. he was the first guy who really made me feel anything special since i broke up with my boyfriend. i met him through band, but we later shared math class, still do in fact. it kinda hurt when he called me "just a band person" so i scribbled down my thoughts on the back of my math paper and here we are.
