It was possibly the worst experience.
I have ever.
Had.

"Were you ignoring me?"
She asked me.
I could hear the hurt.

My lack of an answer.
Was all the answer.
She needed.

"Do you know how much
That hurts?
Do you?

I have spent my entire life
Trying to get noticed
By somebody. Anybody.

People loved to ignore me.
And now you...
You..."

She couldn't even finish.
Her sentence.
She was shaking so bad.

She never cried.
But she was crying now.
Every drop hurt to see.
