Untitled
you tell me about
love, and say I know nothing. But I know enough.
you tell me love is your parents grown
old, together, both
each other's pillar.
you tell me love is your man
walking you home and
leaving you giddy on the doorstep
but i know love.
love is my father yelling YOU ******* ***** when my mother tries to sneak in
in the dead of night
love is me, sitting outside the cold apartment, waiting for her to come visit her four children
love is my mother's boyfriend, and his clothes hangers on my
back, from being too noisy playing
Wheel of Fortune on the old white computer
love is me, smoking my weight in
chemicals
love is me, hiding my noose in the corner
of my cupboard, worried what my siblings would think
That is love.
