the last fight (Free verse) by newdawnfades
The day is dense
I have no feeling left
about waking up at 5pm
about eating food
it doesn't appeal to me
A lowered curtain
over stony faces
covers dripping sadness
The silence in the room
the paralysis
the hesitant steps
her forward slumped shoulders
the glaze in her eyes
the end.
three pairs of pants
four collared shirts
two pairs of shoes
sit in the trunk
of the car
that is leaving soon.
It pulls up to a house
with parents inside
I watch them, ashamed
they will take me in.
the car pulls off.
