Chapter 43: Rent

Poems 2Words: 374

I dream of moving away

far from this place

to some faraway land

with peace filling the space

where people don't know me

and my father won't find me

to be my own person

and live unafraid

of saying the wrong thing

or breathing too loud

or looking too long

and getting thrown out

he would not look for me

of this I am certain

still I could not escape

the one living in my brain
