I ate my lunch
Sausage and water
I heard a stick break
I turned when I saw a young, good-looking boy.
I tried to hide me face with my hoodie
Acting like nothing happened.
"Oh, sorry for the interruption."
He apologized.
I said nothing
He came closer, leaning.
As he gets closer, I hid my face.
"Can I see your face?"
I thought twice about this
As I thought of showing
My face starts to look up.
I finally showed my face.
What he saw would be,
Red eyes,
Messy hair,
Bony face,
Grey eyebags,
And my scars.
I would always put my sleeves up while I eat.
"Let me help."
He grabbed my hands.
