Worrying

Frank hadn't left our room

Since that day,

He doesn't even pull off the blankets,

And he only leaves

To go to the bathroom.

I check on him sometimes.

It's always completely dark in there.

"I'm sorry." I say.

"I'm sorry, Frank."

I didn't even know what I did, but,


He's not talking.


He just keeps staring at a curtain.

"You should take a shower. Frankie, your hair needs to be washed."

No response.

Did I lose him?

Is he real?

Does he exist?

I sighed

To make it all stop

 And reminded him that I loved him.

That would be enough.

I would eat dinner alone again

Tonight.

I prayed he would join me,

So I kept and extra plate out,

Just in case.
