Hollow Attempts

He can't move

and he freaks

like he didn't

do it himself.

Instead of two pills

four slid down his throat

and he freaks

like he didn't

do it to himself.

I stare blankly

wondering why I can't

seem to find the

energy to care.

Why I can't

seem to shake or

make my heart speed up.

Because I do care

don't I?

My brother isn't moving.
