I took a selfie today.
I shot my mouth off and closed my ears.
I turned on the tv and turned you off.
I stood in front of the mirror.
I stood in front of the world.
I took a selfie today.
I counted cars today.
I listened to them pass and hoped you would too.
Colors speeding by and disappearing from sight.
I sat there counting.
I sat there wasting time.
I counted cars today.
I counted scars today.
Wounds you thought would never heal.
A busted knee and a chipped nose.
Cracked ribs and a bruised ego.
Fingers counting higher.
Memories burning brighter.
I counted scars today.
