Vanish

via Daily Prompt: Disappear

Bills to pay that don’t quit

Money’s coming in but slowly ebbing

Relationship is long-distance – hell, I’m alone! – enough of this shit

Kids screaming is not ending

Screaming for attention

Screaming for dinner, snacks, any nutrition

Screaming for keys to car – and gas which requires funding

Screaming over love lost due to infidelity

Screaming for vengeance over love lost to infidelity

Where am I? Quickly hitting the line of insanity

Wanting to dress in my pajamas for comfort

Grab my “blankie” from childhood; I’m so ready for slumber

Where’s my best friend, my spouse?  Incognito as I suffer

Then hide my head under the covers and…..disappear.
