i knew a man once,
but only once.

after him,
they all just seemed
like boys.

i knew a woman once,
but only once.

after her,
they all just seemed
like girls.

i knew people once,
but only once.

after them,
they all just seemed
like enemies.

i knew love once,
but only once.

after that,
it all just seemed
so fake.

i knew myself once,
but only once.

after that,
it all just seemed
so sad.
