i'm a good liar. mostly because i couldn't care less what i say to people, and because i never just lie: i make up a whole story.

This is teenage

My best friend is not a Christian.
But he whispers
like the finer things in life I never knew,
and I can remember
sitting in the back of a room together,
the dim light burning between us
as though we were reborn.
I can remember every one
of the easily fallible philosophies
that we created.
To me, they felt like prayers.
