silence
and a piece
of peace
in the bedroom

creaking
of my knees
is expected
in the hallway

can i run
with no speed
i am exhausted
on the runway

don't look
cause i have to leave
i might come back
in a few years

how must you feel
all alone
just the stranger
you pretend you know

how must you see me
out your door
as if we're strangers
once more

a hammer
at my heart
guess i should halt
before it starts

again.
