I start crying
They watch me and exchange awkward glances
I don’t look at them
They say nothing.
It’s uncomfortable.

Go away
They say, and so I leave
Them alone

Later on, nothing’s said.
Nothing happened,
And so no one’s dead
Inside

No apology, or recognition
Nothing to cease the tension
They don’t care
My pain “annoys” them “more than sarcasm”

Sorry,
I don’t say why everything hurts
Sorry,
I think you would tell me to just get over it
Sorry,
For being upset
Sorry,
For not being in control
Sorry,
For hurting
Sorry,
For not saying sorry
Just because I think you should.

Now I have a scar
And over something that “didn’t happen”
And I think I must truly be losing it.

I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had. - Gary Jules, Mad World.

Well, I've been given the honor of being
host to this nights pip-oscars...
& I've got to give those "Touche" awards to
many tonight, but here's yours Hollow.
Well deserved.
I agree with the others. This rocked!

It sounds to me like you're apologetically sorry and it reminds me of myself.  Nice write.

This is great courtney. i really loved it. I can seriously relate, and the way the poem flowed together. It was amazing.
Keep them coming.

I ask why, but in my mind,
I find i cant really rely on myself.
