Still Not Here With Me

By Clarice 8/7/08

Don’t know why I’m here

I feel confused

The scent of smoke fills my lungs

I still have no drink

And I still feel paranoid like

I’m not supposed to me here.

I should leave soon, I know

But if I leave too soon

He could get suspicious and

I really have nothing

Better to do than be here anyways

I only wish my baby

Was here with me.

Everything would feel right

Nothing would feel wrong

I would never get bored and lonely

And I doubt I’d even be here

I don’t think I am

Even supposed to be here, but

He did say it was alright

But it’s not, cuz you’re not here.

Alright, enough with the

Depressing poems for now

I have to think of a plan to escape

From here, maybe start more of

My homework as well

The sky is still foggy and

I can’t see a darn thing

They’re playing music, it’s okay

But you’re still not here with me…

Yes, fifteen minutes later

I find my escape but when

It finally comes I don’t want

To leave because my family

Has arrived and the music is loud

And we start to dance, then take

A break and I get kicked out

My a female security guard

Just like that, when I felt better I was

Told to leave and you still aren’t here with me…
