how can you stand there

watching  me drown


why do you see them

but never ask me why


everyone else does

but

not you


why don't you question

why I do it


why do you watch me

silently

curiously

but never speak


I saw yours


covering your arm


is that why?


because we share the same pain


you don't question

because you already

know why
