TAKE IT AWAY!
She screamed,
water pouring down her face
as she felt the rise of desperation deep inside her.
TAKE IT AWAY!
She screamed,
her fists clenched
as she shook from the cold.
TAKE IT AWAY!
She screamed,
She screamed .
Her insides felt as though her world was collapsing
and her mind strained against the defeat
but she couldn't do anything.
Her back rested on the wall
Her hair hung limp and wet
And her eyes closed.
Her helpless tears mixed with the rain,
but still all she could say
was 'take it away',
as if that would make the bad disappear,
as if that would make the destruction stop,
as if that would make her finally able to step forward.
But it didn't.
And her hoarse voice couldn't scream anymore,
and her weak legs couldn't hold her up.
But still her tears leaked from her eyes,
and her throat burned with the sobs not voiced,
but all she could do was wish.
Wish desperately that someone,
someone would take it away.
Make it better.
Make it okay.
But no one did.
And she curled into a ball
and cried
as the rain poured around her.
Because that was all she could do.
She couldn't fix anything.
She couldn't set it all right.
All she could do
was curl up on the floor
and sob.
