Pseudologia Fantastica
All those words
and cheery promises
seem like the truth
until your pants are
off, then you lay
in the lie that's
been sold to you.

Sounds like a promise of a lifetime of love that ends up being one night of lust...

Dear N,
If this doesn’t sound exactly like every experience I had in college…I’m always awed by your genius for targeting an experience or idea and writing about it so succinctly! I also love the picture with this write. It made me think just how much promises of love are exactly like unicorns. Nonexistent. Great write. H🌷
