How it seemed like you could see everything, but certain things were blocked out, hidden.

Because anyone that can make you feel that bad about yourself is toxic.

D.C., Baltimore, Philadelphia, Austin... and you. I'll be there soon.
break-up breakup hurt
Because you can never go from going out to being friends, just like that. It's a lie. It's just something that people say they'll do to take the permanence out of a breakup.

But messier.
enough easy persons
It was so easy to disown what you couldn't recognize, to keep yourself apart from things that were foreign and unsettling. The only person you can be sure to control, always, is yourself. Which is a lot to be sure of, but at the same time, not enough.
