POSE season one
taken from the tv show.
you found me, took care of me. you helped me understand.
it’s night? i’ve been out all day?
kindness doesn’t cost you anything.
you lied to me. and the worst part about it is that you did it right to my face.
complain all you want. we have to break this fever.
this is a A-B conversation, so “C” your way out.
why are you eating like this is your last meal?
just promise me you’ll protect yourself.
i’m sorry for what i did to you, and i’m here to talk, but i got boundaries.
why you got to be so mean to me?
when we met, you had nowhere to go. i took you in and gave you shelter and food, ‘cause i couldn’t stand thinking of you being on the streets.
well, look at you, being all useful and shit.
you’re rebellious and usually boring, but i still have use for you.
don’t bullshit me. that offends me.
i don’t really know what that means, but i’ll grovel all night if i have to.
i’m not mad about the situation. i’m sad.
look, please, don’t kick me out.
christmas morning was always special in my house. traditions are important to me.
greatness comes from suffering. from failing over and over until you bleed and cry. and then, finally, something inside just cracks open.
that’s my golden rule. trust gives people power over you.
oh, you got a fever of 102.
if you’re gonna go disappearing like that again, you got to let me know first.
once you’re in my house, you’re my responsibility.
you think i’m not good enough to shine out in the real world.
i’m so disappointed in you.
good time? more like it’s about time.
i’m the asshole, and i’m sorry.
life isn’t always good, but right now, in this moment, it’s good.
i was real messed up about it.
will you love me forever?
last time we spoke, you were pretty hard on me, and told me the truth even when i didn’t want to hear it.
this color looks like a shit-stained diaper left out in the rain.
i deserve more. i’m worthy of better.
life comes for all of us. and it comes hardest for the ones who think they’re above it all.
come, make yourself a nice, big plate. there’s plenty of food.
i don’t owe you anything. i told you: you are not the only one with dreams.
time is not your friend. it’s coming for you, for all of us. it shows no mercy and it always wins, and then you’re gone, forgotten.
