20 Reasons to Tell Them
- Because I need to practice my speaking skills
- Because my distress has made me feel less like a human and more like a slug
- Because I want her to know
- Because his voice is filled with silver, his body filled with anniversaries
- Because I never want to forget
- Because I need to stop pretending that I will live forever
- Because they might not know that you’re totally into building model trains and become your friend
- Because I’ve always had enough reasons and that’s reason enough
- Because we were so unfounded in the dark
- Because why waste the money if I don’t really want to be here?
- Because I need to maintain my own idea of me among so many ideas of me
- Because my roommates might stop stealing my milk
- Because hurting your friend’s feelings for a short amount of time is better than letting her out of the house looking like that
- Because one day you might not have the words
- Because they might try to understand your depression better so they can know how to help you
- Because it makes me tear up, which feels good
- Because they might be into BDSM as well
- Because this could remind me that my voice is worthy of being heard
- Because they might agree and everyone likes agreeing on things
- I’ve got no reason at all. I’m completely unreasonable
