5 days

They locked me in the closet
pushed my face into the carpet
removed pieces of my engine
i still try to smile
Laughter in the hallway
Silence in the kitchen
broken glass and momma's lost it
i broke it but i can't fix it
it's lonely but it's mine
and the spidercrickets jumping
they don't scare me like
the people
they remember better than I do
what I feel
i never told them
i can't look at them
but they think i am
i point my eyes their way
think like them
be like them
or at least pretend
for god's sake
she said she loved me
then she left me
again and again and again and again
they always do
you will too
