Ghosty
DANIEL ALVAREZ DE TOLEDO, JORDAN DUNN PILZ
losing my temper again
is it part of me?
kicking and slamming the door
always arguing
making amends with old friends sounds exhausting
i'm on a high horse
and i can't get off of it
silencing calls
from my dad
when my mom's in a hospital bed
across state lines in boston
i sit on my hands
self assured and absolved
and i don't have to carry that weight
i don't think about things that i'd rather not think about
cover my ears with my fingers and drown it out
that's what i did as a kid
and it helped me out
i see him again
there's a ghost in the attic now
