the disadvantages of dropping out (Free verse) by FreeFormFixation
just got here.
you feel sick.
you sleep in the closet.
it's autumn.
starting to get chilly.
we only have heat in a few rooms.
but you are too sick to move.
i close the door and start up my
space heater.
the next day.
you're dead in the closet.
we're scared.
thinking maybe they'll think that
we killed you.
you disappeared here anyway.
someone is hired to
wrap up your body
and stuff the small room with
perfume.
months past.
it's spring.
it's time to clean.
i remember then.
what's behind that door
is a prison sentence.
so i ask my friend,
"is he there still?"
oh yes.
i'd forgotten.
that room was never opened.
and i just want to leave.
so i call up my dad.
i dont want to sleep
in a house with a body.
and in six years, i know
they'll find you.
so sick that you died.
and we so sick that we
just had to hide it.
