" i witnessed it fall apart,
fragment by fragment,
copious amounts of debris.
there was nothing i could do
except listen.
as i watched loved one's
lives twisted apart.
there wasn't anything i
could do,
other than pretend that
i hadn't heard anything.
i was just tired,
too tired of being
on my toes constantly,
trying to calm the
storm.
i am most definitely
a cruel person
sometimes. "
