Terrified of Remembering

Terrified is a girl I know

She looks away when she passes by

Cold and straight she marches through

Soldier-like in a sad, sad way

Scared of all of the things she doesn’t know

When things were good

When things were fine

Scared of remembering

I think she’s frightened of her reflection

And that’s why

She won’t look my way

Because when she looks at me

She sees what she’s feeling:

A terrified girl

A girl she knows well

Maybe too well
