The hidden
Lost in the shadows
With no light shone
Living lives
Away from the
World

The lights go out
You see them now
They are not
Hidden
Anymore

The lights come back
And there they are
They were never hidden
But hidden
From you

Yes
I am listening to you
What time does this class get out?
Stop

Bite your nails
Chew your lip
Tap your right foot

Out of control

I’m sorry
No
I shouldn’t apologize

The words can’t come out right
I try again
And fail again

Yes I’m focused
Am I?
Stop
Get back on track
One two three cars out the window

Stop
Yes I know
I’ll try to be better

— The End —
