“nov. 2017”
silence is loud
silence is hearing nothing but
the crickets
and a heart pumping blood.
abandonment
is coming home to the same unwashed dishes
and the same baron bookshelf
and the same
silence.
regret is looking at an empty staircase
and recalling every yell and sob it has seen.
disappointment is a cage,
a cell,
a young boy calling for help.
a tall boy trapped in hell.
a kind boy stuck inside himself.
