There's a girl and a boy
Sitting on the rivers edge
Kicking her feet mindlessly in the water watching the ripples her feet make
she says in a quiet voice " my mind is cruel to me "
The boy looks over at the girl who shines in the sunset
Pulls in her into his arms kissing her forehead
"I know."
He reaches over to stop her anxious scratching that she doesn't even know that she does.
He pulls her into his lap and all the noise disappears.
