hallways

by elvarose

You hid the truth somewhere As if no one would know You set it on fire the place inside your head you used to go have you noticed all the people floating aimlessly around our heads and you think that you know its not your place to go left it only for show thoughts like bubbles let go its raining something other than acid that pools around my body like glasses of warm red wine you stagger to the kitchen sink cover reflections that peek from the faucet just bittersweet you screamed at yourself yesterday when you thought it was someone else crawling inside your ears and the lights went out insulted by all the expressions and shadows left around you’d think after all this time that we spent laughing and mourning, you’d sort of have it figured out but you left me standing behind the curtains calling for someone I thought I knew but it was only you
