If Life Doesn't Kill You, Emptiness Will.

Gone

Why do you choose to be gone for so long?
Why are you never home?
Why only in the mornings?
Why not even then?

You're always late to get home.
Where do you go?
What am I to do?

You don't want me to push you away,
Yet here you are,
Pushing us all away.

It's hypocritical of you,
To want me to open up to you,
When you can barely open up
To me.

If you're going to stay away,
Just stay away.

If you're going to come and go,
Just go.

Mom, I love you,
But I can't take it anymore.
