Piano
notes
spilling
softly
from
speakers,
he
hid
the
redness
of
his
eyes
as
he
made
his
way
through
the
house
.
He
counted
the
cracks
in
the
ceiling
and
smoked
another
cigarette
.
Stale
.
The
volatile
tars
and
compounds
stained
the
paper
as
they
burned
, staining
his
fingers
and
leaving
their
unmistakeable
scent
on
his
hands
.
He
coughed.
He
was
inside
,
he
was
alone
.
No
one
was
coming
to
see
him
,
no
one
knew
he
was
there
.
Her
least
of
all
.
All
the
same
,
he
wore
his
sunglasses
to
hide
his
tear
-stained
eyes
.
