Is this love?

“I think I like this boy.”
Well boys suck.
Be friends first.
What do you mean?
Are you sure?
Okay you like him?
Here’s how you attract him
Follow every rule
Cross every T, dot every I
Very quickly learned
Boys
Don’t want to
Be friends first.
Let’s switch up the plan.
Let’s try something new.
This is going to lead to love right?
THIS is what love is like?
Heartbreak, physical devastation
Walls crumbling, castles crashing down
Dreams melting, world closing in
Drifting back off to the Sea of Depression
Okay boys really do suck.
Island to island I hopped
Sometimes for a night, some a week
Some seemed like paradise
Others now seem not so wise
But wait
In true America fashion
Drunk on the Fourth of July
“Maybe because you’re cute”
Cute?
Not hot?
Not sexy?
Cute?
Maybe boys suck, but men don’t.
Let’s slow this down.
Those rules?
Fuck them.
I make my own terms and conditions
I found my endless oasis
Boys don’t want to be friends first
But the man who said
“Cute”
Became my best friend.
