I’m sorry I didn’t answer your cries
That you were beginning to live a lie
Trying to blend in
While hollowing out on the inside
I’m sorry I watched the fear creep into your eyes
Your desperate pleas haunt my sleep
Your wild grasps for something to hold onto
For someone to hold you
I live with the effects every single day
The numbing permeates everything
I’m sorry I watched you die
I saw you fight each and every lie
One by one
You stood your ground
For quite some time
Yet it became too much
To bear on your own
And there I sat
Watching you die
