Fall Apart at the SeamsA Poem by FrikinFrancescaThere is only so much a person can take. Before the laughing and smiling becomes fake.
Here I am, sleeping on the floor.
The clocks ticking away while I stare at the door. My head is aching and feels like it's pounding. She's next to me out like a light, I'm closing my eyes and trying to drown it out with all my might. This floor is hard and my body seems to itch. If I weren't so nice, I'd probably be throwing a huge a*s fit. I think everything in my house isn't right. Seeing how much I'm starting to hate this night. One more problem after another. This whole family thing is turning out to be a huge bother. So the snores go on. I glance at the window and can tell it's dawn. Up all through this dumb night. And I'm still in this relentless fight. I never did get a thank you. All the crap I've been through. I'd be more happier if people noticed. All the sacrifices I make and always dread. After awhile, you learn not to care. I'm just trying to do the right thing, I swear. There is only so much a person can take. Before the laughing and smiling becomes fake. There breaking away at the seams. I wish I could just live in my dreams. © 2010 FrikinFrancesca |
