how to be a milestone

how to be a milestone
do not acknowledge me
do not feel obligated to acknowledge me
acknowledge me a little when I wave from across the room
acknowledge me a little when I come to your work
tell me you are often pursued, and it gets old
tell me you enjoy living single
intrude into my life
be where I am
invite me to be where you are
think that I am strange, in a good way
think I am interesting, in a good way
think I have a lot to say, enjoy it
realize I leave into my own head, think it’s adorable
think I am adorable
feel obligated to listen to me
feel obligated to talk to me
acknowledge I am a shocking sort of weak
acknowledge I am not as you thought
feel obligated to be my friend
feel obligated to help me
think I am strange, in a bad way
think I am interesting, in a bad way
think I need to stop complaining
think I should stand up and be a man
realize I still leave into my own head, hate it
think I have no backbone
tell your friends I have no backbone
feel obligated to be my friend
feel obligated to linger in my life
feel slightly bad for me, but do nothing
(optional)
think I am perfect
think that you love me
tell me you love me
convince me we are perfect
convince me to watch the Notebook, tell me we are like them
love how we argue
love how I make you feel better quickly
feel obligated to be loyal to me, but do not
feel obligated to help me, do not
convince me we should get married
convince me we should sleep together
sleep with me
sleep with my roommate
sleep with my best friend
sleep with someone on my couch while I am out
sleep with me
think that you may not love me
tell me you love me
think that we may not last forever
tell me again that I am perfect
leave.
