She squeezes her eyes shut
As tears go streaming down her face
She imagines a time where she does not ache
Even as she tells herself that things will get better
She knows that they are lies
Even as she smiles, laughs, ignores
She still aches
Even as she acts indifferent, reminisces, and is lied to
She aches
She can block out the world as much as she wants
And she can cry ‘till she runs out of tears
