Poems

Black

"I'm surprised I survived last night"

"Yeah well so am I"

I stare at her in shock

Did you not care if I would die?

"You should really pay attention 

To how your actions affect me"

Mom What do you mean?

I cried for hours straight and you didn't even see.

I knew you didn't mean it

Or was that all a lie?

Because I knew we were both healing

But I still felt like I should die

So I run straight to my room

And turn to lock my door

Everything goes black

And I cry on the floor
