Family
Beads of blood and
Strings of screams
Twine them together to make
A sweater of agony
And sister shut the door
Salty tears and
Milky chills
A remedy for turmoil
And daddy doesn’t even care
Shadows of fear and
Blaring pain
Thoughts of suicide
And mommy’s on the phone
Silent solitude and
Absolute ignorance
By choice they don’t know
And grandma’s busy knitting
Hug for the spirit and
Warm smile for the confidence
Everything will get better
And brother’s listening
