I Was Shy, But I Stood Up

"summer Sisters" Was Actually Was A Huge Influence On "girls" Because It Was The First Thing I Ever Consumed That Sort Of Looked At The Way That Female Friendship Can Be Glorious And Can Be Complicated And Can Be So Like A Worse Betrayal Than Something Romantic And It Just Showed These Archetypes Of Femininity Than Totally Sort Of Individuated Them And Exploded Them.

I Don't Really Know Exactly How It Happened But I Don't Like The Idea That I Would Ever Have Said I'm Going To Write About Racism Or Puberty Or Bullying.

I Made Promises To You That I'm Not Sure I Can Keep. None Of It Has Anything To Do With You. It's Just That I Don't Know What To Do Now. You Must Be Thinking What A Rotten Person I Am.

I Keep Remembering Us And How It Was. I Don't Want To Hurt You ... Not Ever.
