How am I supposed to forget about someone like that?

Immediately getting over him is a nice thought, but its not the way the world works.

So stop telling me to get over him, because Im allowed to be heartbroken.

I wont apologize for my feelings.

Dont tell me hes not worth my tears.

If I want to cry, then Im going to cry.

Ill bawl my eyes out until my mascara creeps down my cheeks and my contacts are all dried out.

Ill never apologize for having feelings.

I wont get over him unless I freak out first.

I know I dont need him.

I know Im better off without him.

I know any man would be lucky to have me.

But Im never going to get over him, not completely, unless I freak out first.

Its how I get my closure.

Otherwise, hell always be hovering in the back of my mind.

My mental health matters.

When I have the flu, Im not pressured to pretend that Im in perfect health.

So when Im depressed, why do I have to cry behind closed doors?

Little things mean a lot to me.

I know that single life isnt all that bad and that boys arent everything.

But my part-time job isnt everything either, and Id still cry if I got fired.

I get upset when bad things happen.

Its the way things go.

Love is all we talk about.

I dont care how I look.

Id rather embrace who I am.

Ill get over him eventually.

One day, Ill look back and laugh at how heartbroken I was over losing such a loser.

But today is not that day.

Today, I need to bask in my misery.
