I am home
from the hospital
after months
being there
over the drug addiction.
I am in
my parent's care.
My room is
as it was
nothing moved
or changed
(except tidied up).
Downstairs my mother
is attending dinner
(guests are coming).
Be on your best
behaviour Nima
mother said
in the car home
none of your nonsense.
I told Benny
I was leaving hospital
and gave him
my address
I hope he writes.
Maybe we can
meet in London
if my parents allow
me out.
I go to my window
and peer out
it's a wonder
my mother hasn't
put bars at the window.
The sky is overcast
grey clouds
dull sun.
If only Benny
was here
and on my bed.
I don't miss
the quacks or nurses
at the hospital.
I go lie
on my bed
and pretend
Benny's here
but he isn't
so not joy or cheer.
