Logan is Fine
Logan is fine.
He doesn't have any problems.
Why, then, is he stuck alone in the hospital?
"It's not a hospital, brother."
Felix's words ring in his mind.
"It's a clinic."
Logan punches his pillow.
Hospital, clinic, either way,
He shouldn't be here.
Logan is fine.
A therapist came to visit him
In his assigned room yesterday,
But he refused to talk.
Sure, he tried to kill himself again.
Sure, weeping cuts line his arms.
Sure, most days he can barely find the strength to get out of bed.
But Logan shouldn't be a whiny baby.
He's fine.
It's funny how his dad Robert's words
Have become his own.
Logan punches his pillow again
As disgust for himself floods his mind.
He's so weak,
He can't even properly kill himself.
If Robert hadn't disowned Logan,
If he didn't refuse to even visit Logan in the clinic,
He would be saying exactly what Logan was thinking.
In fact, the only thing Robert and Logan would agree on
Is that Logan should be dead.
Still, Logan shouldn't be stuck in the hospital.
He is fine.

Logan doesn't understand why he was put in a clinic, but there are some very good reasons...
