Goodbye.

Make up smudged.
Nails bleeding.
Popped lip.
Broken ribs.
Twisted ankle.
Tears running down her face.


She hasn’t had the best things in life,
Yet she still has a smile.

How?
I don’t know.

Maybe it’s all fake.
Maybe she’s fake.

I don’t know.

Am I fake?
Maybe.
Yes, I am.
Why?
I have to be.

Everyone thinks I’m weird.
I’m not.
At least I don’t think I am.
I’m just different.
That’s all.

They’ll send me to the crazy house!
I can’t.
The Monsters will eat me alive.
Or maybe bury me half asleep.
Torture sounds better.
Doesn’t matter.
I’m dead for sure.

Goodbye.

Strengthen your arms now. Train your fingers for battle. Urgency's here now. Train your fingers for battle. Fighting this violence. With your feet wrapped in peace. Sad tears and silence. Now screams of joy. Victory.
