One too many
Embarrassing, awkward situations:
...
The smile and wave
In your direction
Meant for the one behind you
...
Then there's the:
"Wanna catch a movie sometime?"
Then after you reply
They add,
"Oh, I meant just to hang out,
As friends"
And as soon as the sound
Collides with your eardrums,
Red blooms across you face;
You wish for anything,
Anything, to end your existence.
...
The moment you say too much,
Or say the wrong words,
Or for some reason you
Can't. Stop. Talking.
Internal facepalm.
...

Hey, Scriptor!
Writer of my life!
I need to know
What to say, to do,
But you seem to have forgotten
To give me a copy of the script.
