How to disappear
You get of bed silently
Not making a single sound to wake up your dog
You walk out of your room
Ball of your feet
Quiet
Down the stairs
DON’T look at your dog
He’ll wait by the door
Thinking you just forgot again
DON’T look at the painting hanging off the wall
It already hangs a little crooked
Like the house stopped caring too
DON’T look at the dining table
One chair still pushed slightly back
Like dinner ended too quickly
Eyes on the floor
The floor
The door
Walk towards it
Don’t stop
DON’T look at the sky
It looks too beautiful today
And beautiful things make people stay
DON’T look at the trees
Too many memories grow there
The kind you buried but never forgot
DON’T look at strangers
Wondering how they laugh so easily
Wondering when you forgot how
Eyes on the ground
If you look up you fail
Eyes on the ground
So you don’t remember breakfast for the dog
Eyes on the ground
So you don’t turn back
Eyes on the ground
So all you hear is yourself
Walk
Forest
Walk
Faster
Bumped into someone
Sorry
Didn’t look up
Continue
Faster
Before you think too much
Tears
Faster
In the forest
Wander deep into it
Trees
More trees
Flowers you forgot the names of
Wet grass
Fallen logs
Continue
Don’t think
Never look back
Deeper into the Forest
Monkeys
Squirrels
Birds
You
What are you doing there?
Never look back
Never Ever Look Back
Deeper into the forest
Cave
River
Lake
Wow so dirty
Burrows
Cliff…
