when was it

 

when was it 

we became so

self concious

we left behind

even our laughter

for fear

it revealed weakness

-closed mouth smiles

smug and tight-

what time of day

was it when

we abandoned the

hope of children

and swallowed

the rocks

of responsibility

-clenched hands

hearts thick

with rage

and impatience-
