They go around the circle

Telling their tales of despair

The longer it's been since it happened

The less it shows from them

~

The new boy starts his talking

The tears come rolling in

She looks at him with pity

She used to be just like him

~

She meets him as they leave

He asks her why she won't cry

She sighs and pats his shoulder

The problem is how not why
