Sad To See

Sad to see

How things never change

As arrogance has no easy rhyme

With orange

And you cling to a question

With some significance to your struggles

A shallow epiphany

Leading you by the *****

(Compulsively repeating)

A reminder of a void

That gap in your memory

The size of the dusty kitchen cupboard

Or your father's ****

 

No one needs to know.

You should keep to yourself.

Never trust words that precede the word 'but.' And keep your pity - nobody wants it.
