there are people who will arrive in your life at the right time to rock your world and set your expectations ablaze
there will be people who will arrive in your life at the worst time to shatter your hope and lower your self worth
there will be those who have never left your life who you wish would. there will be those who have left your life so long ago it feels like yesterday and five years.
noone knows anything ever
you're gonna be okay.
as I sit deadly still
I hear the voices in the hall get louder
and louder as they go down it
until suddenly there's a shouting match in the kitchen
I could go, could try to stop the verbal carnage of the usual saturday squabble
be present for the slamming door and shattering glass
but I stay here, silent
