Honest

Honest

A Poem by Hell in a Hip Flask

‘I do weird s**t cos I’m worried people won’t remember me if I don’t’

 

                   ‘I try so hard to be witty that I find it hard to relax and have fun’

 

‘I dramatise my own emotional problems so people think I’m interesting’

 

                                ‘I rely on other people to tell me my writing’s good rather than believe in it myself’

 

‘I exaggerate stories if I think people are bored of them’

 

                            ‘I don’t ask for things straight up, I allude to them and hope the message gets across’

 

‘I say I want to help people but I’m way more concerned with myself’

 

                                                                       ‘I delete the poems that don’t get views’

 

‘I make fun of people behind their backs’

 

                                                            ‘I get embarrassed when someone openly displays emotions’

 

‘I try to solve people’s problems when they’re upset, when all they need is comforting’

 

                                              ‘I hate wearing shorts and even worse vests’

 

‘Sex is weird and I’m not very good at it’

 

                                                  This is the only place where I’m honest
