She fell
The girl from above my stance
She fell not so hard
But to cause a graze that bled inks In the ice
And stains in her mind
I clung to the side of the rail
In utter fear of grazing
Or wounding myself
My nails pierced the side board
My eyes pierced the ice
The fear of hitting a nerve
Or grazing a knee
Left footprints in my mind
My voice echoed
I let go subconsciously
Only to find my hands full of cuts
My knees full of grazes
My head bound to the ground
The only difference was the height of my stance
Towering over the small girl I once did not
I'd grown so big
In these few seconds
I'd hurt so bad
In these few minutes
And above it all
I still stood on the ice
With a fucked up face
A marked mind
And a not so brave little girl
reaching up from behind
