Your eyes were wet
Your eyes were red

You kept sniffing
You kept covering up your mouth

You greeted me
You asked how I was

You couldn't wait for an answer
You couldn't wait to get out of there

I wanted you to stay
I wanted you next to me

I grabbed your hand
I didn't want you to leave

I watched you turn your back
I watched you walk away

I thought you were disgusted with me
I thought you hated me

She said you were going to cry
She said you just didn't want me to see

That's why you only visited your daughter
Once
For two fucking minutes
After she tried to kill herself.











That fucking hurt.
