dining table
Squeaking,
the fork goes
Clatter,
the plates groan
across me sitting,
three people talking,
laughing as they eat
in bubbly cheeks
smiling
but somehow
it's distantly quiet
the table seems
faraway,
unreachable,
they're talking,
what's it about?
Mom
I can't hear you
Dad
you're joking?
silently,
unknowingly,
dreadingly
suffocates
me
