The pain flows around her like water

She hides it deeper inside

Pushing it away for the sake of others

She doesn’t know what to do:

How to feel, How to behave.

There are things she wants to say

Things she wants to do

But she feels she doesn’t have the right.

That she shouldn’t feel this way.

It’s all her fault anyway right?

Lines crossed, words said

But at the end of it all,

Is it worth the pain, the trouble?

Is it worth the pain inflicted on all involved?
