the drugs don't work

i couldn't wait to leave.
even with nothing to do it felt stressful.
coat done up, scarf wrapped around my neck warmly.
i knew exactly what was going to happen.
exactly how it was going to happen.

i remember the looks.
they made me smile, if nothing else.
the irony is what killed me.
i paced myself slowly, not rushing despite the cold.
i was too tired to hurry.

the icy air blew my unruly bangs in my face.
a twitch of my neck threw them out of my view,
exposing my tear-filled eyes.
it was all very cinematic, if i say so myself.
it happened 3 times today.
