A GIRL I KNOW

I know a girl who doesn’t understand the concept of filters,
doesn’t understand boundaries, stays up late in case she remembers birthdays,
and sends out comforting texts to anybody she thinks she can help.

I know a girl who is too pure, sometimes too considerate.
I know a girl who believes that things can be fixed even after their broken pieces have cut her skin.
I know a girl who craves stability, but she hasn’t learned that lesson yet.
I know this girl who cares a little too much.

I know a girl who’s a bit sensitive, and sometimes, a little too negative.
I think she rants way more than she should and can be harsh at times.
I know a girl who’s a little too private about her life but also overshares.
I think nobody ever taught her the concept of in-between.

I know this girl who is a little too much of everything you don’t want and a little too less than being just enough.
I think nobody ever taught her how to be enough. The girl I know is a terrible mess.

The girl I know rants a little too much.
The girl I know is terrible at leaving but also too quick at pushing people away.
I am telling you that this girl I know is bad-bad poetry with no proper spacings and punctuation,
but when you read her out, she has a story that makes sense.
It’s just that it is a little too hard to read her, you’ll try and fail at the first sentence.

But I am telling you that this girl I know is anything but simple.
The girl that I know will almost always forgive you, just that she’ll not forget things easily.
I am telling you that this girl is a bad poem, full of broken sentences and misspelt words and you’ll never reach the end and this girl I know, she is a goddamn hurricane.
