Selfish (Free verse) by darby pyn
Screaming on the road white knuckles squeeze
deep. impact, shards of glass then sleep.
eyes staring into a jail cell foretelling
a premonition scraping fate's shell.
cry your sour tears and lock the
door. lock out the guilt and distract with
routine. the moans fade lower. apologize,
sympathize and wait. premeditation silence
is close. sacrifice for my convenience with
each chance I disregard. my bed is made
I am content another victom to resent. now
the silence screams reaction. a shallow grave
to bury my fate never regard as a person only
a mistake. the flashing lights interrogate
my soul. only now caught I see what I stole.
