So They Say

So They Say

A Poem by EmyBow

They say “Things will change”,

but they never do.

The say “Things are okay now”,

but what good does that do?

They say “He’s in a better place now”.

What bullshit.

They say “He’s with Jesus now”.

Sure, that’s it.

They say “He just wasn’t happy”,

but what do they know?

They say “Are you okay?”.

Maybe I should just lay low.

They say “Look how far you’ve come!”.

I’ve gone nowhere.

They say “Stop running away”,

but the keys have got to be somewhere.

They say “Things are going to be better now”.

Like they even believe it.

They say “How are you feeling?”.

I feel like I’ve been hit.

They say “I’m here”,

like they even give a f**k.

They say “She’s just too upset”,

but maybe it’s just my bad luck.

They say “You’re just making it difficult”.

Well that’s just their voice.

They say “I give up!”.

Well that’s their choice.
