is this sound okay?
you’re sweet
like those cupcakes your mom used to make
sweet like the smell of those roses that grew outside my window
the softest hint of pink
sweet like the time you told me
you probably love me
when you knew I didn’t love you back
the years have melted past me
like chocolate left too long in the sun
and now I say you’re sweet
because I can tell
you pity me
the lonely bony girl
out of her comfort
out of people who care
