I spent a day without hearing you
Instead, I was serenaded
by a demon I've never met
with the lip of an angel

You seem distraught
You forced yourself in
You forced the world out
and yet I was the one slipping
I shook so violently

I disappeared
But only so I could be rid of it
I splashed myself in ice
and made myself invisible
When I returned
you didn't see me
and I wondered why

silly me.
