My nightmare family (anonymous)
There’s my dad
Passed out on his bed
Reeking of cigarettes and beer.
Here’s my mum
In a whole different house
Lying down in her bedroom,
All alone with a diary of some kind.
She always writes in it.
And my sisters?
They’re talking to each other
Over the phone.
That’s all they can do
To contact each other.
There are tears dripping from their eyes.
The younger brother?
He’s all alone, sitting on the computer
Or watching TV.
The older brother?
Nobody knows where he is.
He’s always out. Never to be seen.
He doesn’t care about his life.
And me…
Who cares about me?
