Back to the Drawing Board

check for the bruises
check for the bones
see if the pain is real
make sure it's not too old

confusion takes over
colors begin to slur
one becomes another
and shapes are no longer

where have you gone?
where did you go this time?
are you hiding?
are you running?

I can never understand
I guess you never wanted it
oh well
waiting is all I seem to do
that is all my use for you

Author notes

Kind of a mix of numb, regret and anger.

'Would you marry a rubber duck?'
