Can't

It’s one of those 4 letter words

Our parents tell us not to say it

Our coaches tell us not to say it

Lots of people tell us not to say it

And yet here I am

And I’ve decided to write it out

What I can’t do…

I can’t hold a grudge

I can’t dive

I can’t fit in a size 2

I can’t watch a pointless movie

I can’t always let go

I can’t stop myself sometimes

I can’t always decide what I want to do

I can’t read every book as fast as I read Harry Potter

I can’t stay away sometimes

I can’t turn off my emotions

I can’t stand mean people

I can’t be happy all of the time

I can’t be mean for long

I can’t be a bitch most of the time

I can’t deal with boredom well

I can’t be alone too much

I can’t give up what I want

I can’t cook all that well

I can’t deal with people all of the time

I can’t always tell my friends what I really think
