  1. “They’ll never get together by themselves” she thought bitterly. She could not believe her very own role in this story: she was not meant to play the lover, but the match-maker. He was perfect for her, but she was not perfect for him… She, the other one, was actually more suited for him.

  2. They can’t feel themselves
    Daleks ruin humanity
    the cockroach of the universe
    but somehow they are always
    stepped on

  3. mess
    just a mess.
    help people out of property poverty
    so they can help…themselves?
    what even is a self anyway?
    of fuck just shoot me when I do that
    my whole BEING shakes with embarrassment
    SO META
    oh I cry with irony
    is this for me anyway?

  5. I don’t know what to do.
    they go in and then out
    among themselves
    undulation
    duly

    honey in the hair
    honey in the air
    whiskey running loving
    cunning
    people
    that I’ll never know
    preening themselves
    I’ll never know anything but them
    that’s it
    that’s just it
    that’s all I’ll ever know
    them and their selves
    theirselves
    them
    them
    them

  6. These people only care about themselves. They are evil creatures that lurk everywhere you turn. I am one of these.

  7. These are people who only like each other. They are evil creatures that lurk everywhere you turn. I am one of these.

  8. Themselves. What did they do by themselves? What if they did nothing? What if they did it all? What if they cured cancer? What if they went to the moon or walked atop the ocean? What if they had AIDs that they caught: themselves.

  11. We keep to ourselves
    And we have this crazy idea
    That we all know how to fix ourselves
    Because deep down
    We are all broken
    And we are all left trying
    To find all the pieces
    And put them together ourselves

  12. something hit them in the gut when they thought of their lidless eyes, themselves wondering just how it was they got to be so anomalous and rescinded their power over angels and demons to the great goodness.

    Harper Gilbert
  13. us and them. themselves. the other. they can please themselves. them +selves. Who are they? I feel like one of them. I certainly don’t feel like an us.

    Rose
  14. Everyone should just be themselves. If that even means anything. Who is yourself? If you do something, doesn’t that automatically make it you? How can you be authentic? It’s a load of crap I guess.

    Erin
  15. Everything they did was for themselves. Everything. But let’s be honest here. What isn’t for themselves? What isn’t for ourselves? Nothing in the world is purely selfless. Even the smallest acts of kindness are the biggest acts of selfishness. It’s a benefit-ourselves-only world.

  16. They hugged themselves. They had nobody else to do it for them. If only they could find each other. They caught a glance of each other, once, while they both were on the subway. They hugged themselves thinking of it.

  17. Some people thought that they were strange, that they were unique. But, in all honesty, they were themselves. They were the people of the earth, the brilliant, dazzling people with the eyes that stared at the skies and the minds that wondered at everything. They were a fresh breath of air, the warm curl of water. Every day, all the time.

  18. Everything they did was for themselves. There wasn’t one thing they did that was purely selfless; and let’s be honest, what is? Everything that is done in the world is an act for your own benefit. For their benefit. That’s it. Even the smallest act of kindness is a big act of selfishness.

    Cayla
  19. If those who love
    and hate like fools are merely
    figments of God’s imagination
    then
    what becomes of the golden rays
    of thought that shine upon
    themselves?

    Poet
  20. I hear THEM walking… I think they’re waiting out there… I don’t know what to do… Need to get out of here, but I can’t all I here is footsteps

    Kiril Palaveev
  21. It was all about themselves. They never thought about me, not that I could blame them. But I was still there guiding them bit by bit until now. Now, I’m not sure if I want to do this. No thanks. Even if they could see me I doubt they would say thank you. That’s the thing about humans, though, they never say thanks. We help them but they want all the credit for themselves.

  22. Individuality is a fabricated concept
    invented to make us think we’re all so special
    but really, when we get together we conform into
    massive blobs of unoriginal homogeneity

  23. ourselves. yourself. myself. we’re all together in this great abyss of a world, but they, them, those people over there. they keep to themselves. who are they? well, they are, simply put, themselves.

    Eleanor
  24. Themselves they are, and that’s all I know. I’d like to be original, a you or a me, but family chains bond me. I would like to be special and scream my name loud, but it’s lost in the crowd.

    Rose
  25. they left their parents
    they left their husbands and wives
    they ran to the mountains
    to be Themselves
    they are there to this day
    up there being
    Themselves

  26. Are coming from outer selves and feel a beginning reaching inner. The are themselves and no one else. Give and take a new day. Being themselves. Ourselves can only wonder. Gazing in wonder.

    Maria
  28. we are not one
    but each other
    a self
    so we keep to
    ourselves
    and they keep to
    themselves

  29. Themselves, everybody is always talking about themselves. What if some day, somebody starts thinking about the other person? What woul happen if you ask the person who is sitting next to you: How are you? What is your name? What are you dreams?

  30. they told the students to be themselves. wrote it on motivational posters, jimmy eat world sang it into my 11 year old ears. i thought that wearing black converse in the sixth grade was enough to make me myself.

    Jessi
  31. keep it, i don’t need it

  32. I see them everyday.
    Arms linked; Palms sweaty.

  36. they themselves were the only people who knew. The world was going to end. But it is still going to be there, because they themselves know. Why? Because that is the way they themselves wanted it to be.

  37. they were talking to each other. Alone, at the edge of the play ground. The kids that sat under the trees, pretending to brew potions that would turn all the other kids into minions. They were unique. The dominated. Their parents feared them. They were utterly themselves.

    Emma Rose
