Fade

FADE~It Ate Her Up

She smiled at she twirled, the fog was eating her up 

Her kind words saved you 

And as you held her hand, you hoped she would never let you go 

But, she slipped 

And the fog ate her up 

You never questioned how she understood you

Never asked how she was feeling

Her face hidden by a mask

Impenetrable to all

Tears streamed down her face

Feeling all alone 

In a world full of people 

None willing to look straight and see

The tears were dripping down her cheeks

And gently making their ways down her arms

Slowly but surely covering her hands

Until she slipped away into the fog

She had once saved you from 

And then she was gone
