gather around the bonfire

gather around the bonfire

A Poem by rosieect
"

throw some gas on and let it burn

"

i have so much s**t to unlearn

it’s like i’ve spent the last six years carefully writing notes

and now it all needs to go into a f*****g bonfire 


burn the rules around clothes and makeup

zac doesn’t know f**k about how

women are supposed to dress


burn the rules about your hair and your moustache 

calum doesn’t know anything

like literally at all


burn the rules about your height and your weight

alice hasn’t seen you in almost eight years

and you don’t even look like a Sasquatch 


burn the rules about how you laugh and talk and interact with people

hannah’s a f*****g idiot 

seriously f**k hannah 


pack up all of the hurt hannah left you with 

four wasted, wasted years 

and chuck it in 


watch it burn 

and think about how far you’ve come 

with that riding on your back
