i heard it
on my way upstairs
your mocking you thought i didn't hear
now i sit with tears
anna burns Apr 2020
i want to feel warm,
but this room is dark.
a heavy atmosphere combats my cold.
there's a soothing voice coming into my ears.
a ball on the floor, i curl up,
that's in my head.
a stormy world outside to match me, to catch me.

my coffee is cold.

bending over in agony,
as silent tears fall and flow.
time to find a way to go...

no, i must learn to grow.

sometimes to fight,
doesn't seem right,
cause life is my plight.

wasn't my fault

but somehow i'm the one who get's in trouble

fingers flow along the sea of white and black.
mind consumed with memorized melodies.
it's like coming up for air.

dim
she says she's alright
but turn down the lights
it's all in her head now
