Untitled 60

here i am

with the only thing to stare at

stark, white, blinding walls

only that color

by the obnoxious glow of a cheap hotel lamp

far off sounds of a barking dog

alone

as i am

with my pen and hotel paper

and too many reminders

that they were all gone

and the game ended

and no one ever said

how they felt about me
