I hear the sounds of the silent cries

I reach out to help, barely missing

I try again and again

I see the angry hand whip out

I wince looking into her eyes

She cries looking at her father's hand

She holds her tears knowing her fate

Her father swings around his fist, shouting incoherently,

She stands strong

He strikes once more

She finally cries out

I watch the window as she mouths to run

I turn ready to flee

I hear the sound of the air splitting scream

I run back to her, only to find her body

Why had I ran?

I wake in a start

I had to help
