(156)[ Could Be A Sad Day … 2•18•2020 ]

[ Today Could Be A Really Sad Day, If I Let It ]
[ The Thoughts In My Head Have Not Taken A Grip ]
[ Actually My Thoughts Have Been Completely Split ]

[ Which Way Do I Go, What Am I Expected To Do ]
[ Why Should I Ask You? ]

[ What Kind Of Experience Do You Have In These
Kinds Of Things? ]
[ I’d Like To See ]
[ What Your Experience Brings ]

[ When Someone Brings Me Their Story ]
[ As They Are Telling Me About P.T.S.D. ]
[ I Get A Little Wary ]
[ Do You Really Have The Disorder ]
[ Or A Really Harmful Memory? ]

[ Okay, You Experienced, Saw Or Heard Something That
Made It A Bad Event ]
[ So, Now Does Your Mind Get Bent? ]
[ When You Start To Relive How It All Went? ]

[ Or You Just Remember It Well ]
[ You’re Not Reliving The Sight, Sounds Or Smells ]

[ Is It Hard To Get Some Sleep? ]
[ & It’s Next To Impossible To Get Some That’s Very Deep ]

[ I Can’t Let What Has Happened The Last Couple Of Days Get Me
Down ]
[ Send Me Crawling On The Ground ]
[ I’ll Get Up On Own ]
[ To Keep My World Going Around ]

(393)▪︎[ A Sad Boy … 5•8•2021 ]

[ This Is For That One, Sad Boy ]
[ Living Lonely, Without Any Toys ]

[ When You Go To Your Closet, For Some Fun ]
[ You Don’t Find, A Single One ]

[ They Were Taken From You, About Two Years Ago ]
[ For Reasons That You Still, Don’t Know ]

[ One Day They Were Here & The Next Day They Were Gone ]
[ You Don’t Remember What You Did, That Was So Wrong ]

[ To Have Them Taken, When You Were Not There ]
[ & If You Were Asked, You Would Gladly Share ]

[ That Day, Plays Through Your Mind ]
[ Time, After Time ]

[ You Went Down The Street, To The Park ]
[ To Play With Your Friends ]
[ & Then, You Made It Home, Before Dark ]

[ Do You Go To Your Mom Or Dad & Ask ( WHY? ) ]
[ Is It Even, Worth Another Try? ]

[ You Still Have Welts ]
[ From The Last Time, That Your Dad Got Mad & Used His Belt ]

[ You Never Thought ]
[ That He Was Ever, Going To Stop ]
[ All Because, You Drank A Pop ]

[ Without Your Dad’s Permission ]
[ & After Your Admission ]

[ Were The Toys Being Taken Because Of That? ]
[ Being Taken Because Of That One Bad Act? ]

[ Or Was It Because Of The Bank, That You & Your Four
     Friends Robbed Over Two Years Ago, Last May ]
[ Your  Little Group Of Friends, Just Wanted To Get Paid ]

[ You All Got The Cash ]
[ By Going In & Out, Really Fast ]

[ But Then Your Dad, Caught A View ]
[ Of That Evenings News ]

[ After Stashing Some In The Floor & In A Crawl Space, In The
     Hall ]
[ Your Dad Said That He Wanted It All ]
[ Or He Would Make A Call ]
[ So We Had To Give It To Him ]
[ But We Kept What I Bundled Up & Hid In The Wall ]

[ He Had No Clue ]
[ & Neither Did You ]

[ Know That The Story Would Twist ]

~ The End ~

[ Mahalo ]
