Crazy

Can't wake you up today, Mother

Who will you be

Forever unsure

Of the eyes I will see

I eagerly wait

The classroom is near

Away from delusion

Where things are more clear

I don't want my breakfast

I'll skip the cartoons

I can't find my shoes

Our house is in ruins

A goodbye to crazy

At least for the day

You tell me "don't go"

You want me to stay

Some laughs in the school yard

A perfect escape

Dreaded are weekends

And long summer breaks

A slow walk home

To see what awaits

I kick past the fence

And open the gate

I come back now

to just what I need

As I am only 10

I cannot be freed

A mothers love

Will always be

I am not like you

But you are still in me
