She finally listened to the song, I watch as she -- sadly -- only listened to the song, not the lyrics, not the mood, not the tone, not the fucking message, and definitely not the pain, just the song.
I watched as she stared at me, asking me questions are you okay?, you can talk to me.
I watched as she talked and I laughed, a loud humourless laughter, a tear slid down my face as I realized she didn't understand the song, me. She doesn't get it, and the realization sets in, If She doesn't understand, Who Can?
No one.
