This one is short and I don't know what to call it

I'm a little tired right now
and I just heard someone say
"patience is a great thing. If you have time for it."
And I couldn't help but roll my eyes.

In truth this man is my step father
And in truth I don't think he should ever create motivational posters.

But he looked at the moon and said it looked far away.
And I couldn't help but wish that the moon were closer.

Because maybe I have abandonment issues

And maybe the moon has been the most constant thing in my erratic teenage life

And maybe I'm afraid that will change
