She says to me
I don’t know what to do
I feel like I’m going to cry
Trying desperately to change the subject
I’m being ripped apart inside
I want to reach over and hug her
But its hard to feel someone’s arms through a screen
I want to pull her through
And wring her out like a sponge
To get rid of all of her worries
Let them fall like dirty water from her mind
Into a bucket
And make him carry the bucket
Make him feel the weight of what he has done
The weight of it crushing her mind
Forcing happy thoughts to leak out through her eyes
In the form of tears
