Questioning makes it awkward,
But she is still brave enough to talk.
She starts out gentle,
But my lips are shut,
Because the way she states those words,
Hurt a little to much.
When she pauses,
Overwhelmed,
That's when I speak,
Because she needs to hear my voice,
fight for me,
Just as much as I do.
She listens,
Before the light in her breaks,
Releasing her hope,
And her love,
And she throws it all on the ground,
And stomps on it with my shoe.
Now,
I could've stopped her.
Now,
I don't speak again.
Now,
I'm the coward.
