Disappear
A destructive career.
Toes curled over the pier.
Heart beating with fear
Of words too sincere.

Helpless dark atmosphere;
Downed with amber beer
Pretending forced cheer
While hiding another tear.

Anger will volunteer
Meanness so cavalier.
Sharp tongues sting and steer
Toward the uncharted frontier.

Retreat. Disappear.
The collapse so near
A solution unclear
From a destructive career.
