Music
Was the only place
I could let loose in.
Detached from the noisy world
Which would often
Take up space
From deep within.
For I was angry
And extremely unhappy
With me not knowing
What I was made of;
Veering away
From who I truly was and am.
And so
I took it out on my parents
By growing distant
And occasionally snapping at them
With things soon coming
To a very ugly head
Mum was yelling something
(I cannot remember the words exactly)
But all I knew was that
She was
Banning me
From using earphones in the car
Ever again.
For I think
She was hoping
That would make me talk
And have conversations
In the car rides with her
Like we did in the distant past
She missed her daughter
The old one,
The one which she had
Loved so very much
But instead,
I drifted
Even further apart
For no longer
Did I have music
To almost,
In a way,
Confide myself in.
