I asked her if she was okay

And she laughed a little too hard

And smiled a little too big

And told me she was

And in that moment

While i read it, and her smile strained

And I frowned because

She didn't

Answer

Me.

.

I asked her

If she was okay

And she didn't reply

So, I went to her house

And I found her on her bathroom floor

Covered in blood and broken memories

And I held her close to me while crying

All of the words in this world

Couldn't save her

In that moment

.

My friend asked me If I was okay

I closed my eyes to think about it

And I opened them once more

And I smiled at her

But I didn't speak

Because there

Are no words

And she

Nods

But

I can see

The doubt

In her eyes.
