I'd like to think it's coming soon

Like in theaters, only it's real.

Slamming doors, tense silences

I don't like being at home. I don't

like those stares that ask, "Why?"

There is no answer to something I didn't do,

No way to say what will bring hate,

bitter, caustic words.

Better to say nothing.

Better to wait, since it's always cheaper

that way.

Something wrong with this poem?
