Have You Ever

Have you ever
Used the shower to itch your back
Jumped in a mud puddle to splash somebody else
Cried at pain you can’t feel
Yelled at somebody you love
Pretended you don’t care
Made up your own curse

Have you ever
Wanted to kiss a puppy’s nose
Done just that
Stared singing in the middle of a crowd
Or wanted to
Instinctively scrunched your nose in disgust
And regretted it

Have you ever
Dreamed of love
Asked a stupid question
Ignored somebody you’ve been dying to talk to
Looked at your reflections and said
“Wow, I’m hot”
Followed by “What’s up with my hair?”

Have you ever
Been complex
Been loud
Snobby
Sweet
Human
