I open my eyes in the morning Wondering, 'How to pass through the day without constant yells and blames.' I stretch my hands out Hoping, 'People don't notice my scars'. I make my way towards my siblings, Greeting them 'Hi!' Hoping, 'they don't see through my false facade'. I munch on some snacks and tell mom that I'm full Hoping, 'She doesn't see straight through my lie'. I use gadgets 12/7 and my parents say I'm texting, But....., 'I'm trying to run away from the reality'. I sit and stare at books, but don't study.. And my parents say, 'You are just distracted because of that guy', 'Try to concentrate', 'This scores are bullshit'. Little do they know, Family problems, Shifting, Losing people, New environment 'Have distracted my mind'. I try to concentrate, 'But my doesn't cope up with me'. I joke around, paint on a smile, play and laugh along with my siblings.. Trying to believe, 'I belong here'. But deep down, 'I don't feel home when I'm at home'.
