Never lastgoodbyes?
A proud hat decorates his bronzed head,
A badge of sour fate resting below.
Sparkles bump off the pixel-green chest
Onto my closed wooden door, my chestnut tomb
Where I choked myself on my pillow
to keep out the sounds.
Stubborn. I will NOT see you go.
Quips from the lighted outside tug at my heartstrings.
Notes of a lonely piano key him out the door
This tune!
Bubblegum, Popcorn-movies!
Ancient laughter, chewy smores!
Brother, brother, come back!
The TVBox waits with me, passing time with brain-dead soaps.
Red Ribbons unscroll like snakes. White tells the news.
At last!
Uniforms cross my eyes.
A photo slaps me in the face
My heart splinters, sticking my skin with sharp reality shards.
Killed In Action.
Chained here, in my sad cave.
I ate my pillow in a dark tomb.
Too late. I cannot say goodbye.
Eternities of monotony wound me up
I walked right into the wall and still pressed forward
And am still waiting.
Guilty of the never lastgoodbyes.
