mohawk monday

A double mohawk to be doubly as evil
And you'll never be as bubbly as she will
I could recognise you
From a distance

She came back to mine at a weird time
My brother was there and so were you
And it felt like all the people with whom
I'm not sure where I stand
Were all around

And I hadn't felt that at home in a while
I wish I could have asked you to stay a while
And that hug before you left was really awkward
And I'm sorry
I've just been fighting off this flu and it's really
Scrambled my brain a bit

I slept an entire day and night and I was still tired
And I looked to the corner of my room
Dizzy and dying
Lips cracked now more than ever
To find comfort in that gold shoebox
In its framed photo
And its exam extra time scribbles
And notes you left when i would sleep in
Packed away neatly in contrast to the photos
Those articles told me I should delete
Sprawled across my camera roll
