Go Home
November 4, 2012
The room is loud
But all eyes are you now
Like a sore thumb sticking out or
The rain after a long drought
So vulnerable at your age
Don't know what to do or
Who to turn to
Everyone keeps staring at you
waiting for you to see the elephant in the room
waiting for you to catch a clue
It's so obvious to them
Why cant you see the problem
There's smoke coming out of the back room
The smell of alcohol in the air
No adults around
Some kids making out on the couch
Don't turn your cheek
Don't just walk away
Don't go along with it
Please just go home
Call the police on your way out the door
Save someones future along with your own
Thank you if went home
