The Boy

“My name is Silas.”
He introduced himself
in group therapy.
I sat across from him,
watching his every move;
his lips smirk,
his fingers twitch,
I watch him carefully.

I catch his eye,
only for a moment.
I tried to smile but
nothing happened.
I want his eyes
all over me.
I want him to
consume me whole.
