The man I looked up to the most
Didn't question my
Red and puffy eyes.
Simply because
he didn't care enough
to notice.
My father,
Will never care to see the commotion of my wild emotions.
It kills me,
I tell him.
But when I look at him, he's staring off into the distance.
Then you'll die,
He says simply before walking off.
