Angel
She ran from me
I knew she would
She always knew everything
There he was
The bane of my existence
Yet my only hold to reality is with him
My mouth is kept shut
And I smile at him
He only grins back at me
He knows what he's done
But I bet he won't remember
Whenever something bad happens,
I hold it all for him
He has his protection, I have mine
I go over there
We have school to go to
Not that he'll remember anything
But for me, it was another lie
To be in a craze and watch the people ask questions
That I will never answer
Because I will stay with him to the end
In those crowded halls, I can see them
The hushed words
As they hunched over together
Probably asking questions
More and more that will never be answered
He walks through the doorway
He's the only calm one in there
It's a mess, everyone's not listening
The teacher goes on and on about it
When no one listens to his lessons
That he was making up on the spot
I watch everyone
They seem so unhappy
At least, most of them
Some are elated
But they have to hide it
Just in case they come and ask
what was wrong with them?
Like what they did with Stone
The way he always had a calm attitude
That never fazed him
He just went along with it
That was what he had always done
And that was what he was doing now
Just sitting there
Probably glad that nothing was happening
Like he had nothing to do with it at all
ZoeI feel like I'm falling
I haven't left my sanctuary
Ever since that day
I don't know how long it's been
Not long for me
I can't seem to focus
I'm too afraid
I should let it all out
But I know that he could, would, do it again
It didn't matter to him
He didn't care for me
He didn't care for anyone
To him, we were all figures in a smoky cloud
It's dark
I haven't seen the light for so long
At least until the door opens
My breathing stopped
Was it him?
Had he come for me?
But it was only her
The woman that I had come from
I'm worried, she says
I know she isn't
She's hated me
Ever since forever
I was an accident
Never supposed to have come and ruined her life
I destroyed her dreams
It wasn't my fault
But I don't care
Nothing matters anymore
At least until someone comes from behind her
A man
He flicks the switch
I'm blinded instantly
The light is rushing back into my deprived eyes
He's quick to look over me
To say to her that I was depressed
Maybe suicidal
Maybe I need help
Maybe I just need to die
I wish he would say that
It would be so much easier if he did
Someone will come over he says
I don't care
No one will listen anyway
He'll get me before that happens
