Day 41: “Gen Z Existentialism”
No one ever told me
that you can get acne in your 20s
Nobody told me
that being an adult is never ending tiredness
No one told me
that everyone is performing and nothing is real
No one said, “hey,
we’re sorry we made the world a terrible place”
No one ever told me
that it’s okay to take a break
Nobody told me
my younger me was right about a lot of things
No one said, “hey,
you’re cool” and meant it
No one ever told me
that my mascara smudged on my eye
And that’s fucked up
