121.
I hate my extra skin.
I hate how it doesn't redefine the muscles I've put on my body over the last year.
The need for it not to be there without some fancy surgery.

I hate my extra skin on my arms.
I hate how good other girls look in tight shirts.
While I look the opposite.
The skin that could look good on other girls could not look good on me.
I hate my extra skin.
~E, extra skin.

I gave up on telling people my interests when people stopped asking.
When I wanted and felt like I could say something I was shot down.
So I gave up.
I gave up when people stopped asking if I still did something I had told them months prior.
I gave up trying to talk to them about it.
I told them what they wanted to hear.
Other than that. Nothing was said.
I gave up trying to someone else.
~E, mirror.

I wanted you to come back.
But I wasn't gonna kill myself for it.
~E, there's no point.

124.
To the ones
you loved before me.
I am sorry.

125.
Sometimes I want to change myself so much.
That when I look back. I don't recognize the girl I see.
