The room is cold.
silent
and still.
take in a breath
as my stomach begins to fill.
the years are gone
i'm on my way now
getting away
from the place i call home
mom is crying by the door
sister is asking why
brother is nowhere to be found
as I grab my things from the floor
I pull myself away from it all.
walk pass mom
pass sister
scan the room for brother.
feel my heart beat as it skips another.
i don't know where i'll go.
but know
that I love you all so.
Please tell me what you think

Sometimes leaving is the hardest thing we can do, but it is also the most vital. And we all react differently to grief, someby running away from it all together and denying it's existance.
Good poem, very raw and something most can relate too
