behind slammed doors and silent screams

I cried in silence again.

The tears streamed down

And made puddles on my carpet floor

I'm lying on again.

 

I watched the minutes change again.

Somehow the clocks go from five thirty

To nine thirty in an hour;

I've been on the same assignment.

 

I took a nap this afternoon again.

But I didn't even turn out the lights,

I don't know if I fell asleep

Or if I was just falling like I was the rest of the day.

 

My sweatshirt sleeves are wet again.

It's too hot out to wear long sleeves

But I sweat through it anyway;

I'm just cold. 

 

My room is scattered with mess again.

Bugs crawling, biting at my legs

As I'm lying in my bed, awake,

Because I'm living a nightmare.

 

I'm not happy anymore.

But I don't think I ever was,

I'm not sad, not quite,

Don't know who this world was made for...

 

But I don't think for me.

    It's strewn on the floor

    again, because I was too lazy

    to throw it in the hamper

    and instead it's on the carpet floor.

     

    And it's there next time

    I'm crying on the floor;

    We run back to your house,

    The lights are still on,

    And they cover your freckled face,

    Like it's the sun.

     

    The grass brushes our feet,

    And the wind catches in your hair,

  • observation ii

    We sit out on the sand,

    The fog covers the sky,

    And blankets the world,

    Like a shield. 

     

    The waves nip at our feet,

    The water's cold

    But I'm warm because you hold my hand,
