Are We Out Of Orbit?
I feel gross. Not the
deodorant-has-run-out-and-I-still-have-two-classes-to-go kind, but
the my-insides-feel-moldy gross.
The day that you left
me behind. When you were taken from us.
The world doesn't
seem right anymore. Are we out of orbit? Or is this just too much to
bear?
How can I appear so
healthy, when I feel diseased?
No body's watching
anymore. And I wonder, why they don't see. Why they don't see me.
They think everything is fine, and go about their day.
There's nobody to
talk to anymore, no one to listen. Everyone's so caught up in their
own troubles, to notice each other.
But you were there. You
would ask me if I had a boyfriend, and if he was cute.
You used to dance, but
married a man with two left feet.
You were such and
optimist.
Why did you leave? It
wasn't your time. Not yet, not yet.
You should be here,
making us laugh once more.
I bet you are thinking
we're being silly, the way we're reacting.
