His eyes grow wide,
As I tell him the news,
His arms hang at his side,
Like they have suddenly been weighted.
A world on his shoulders,
Crushing down his spirit,
Thoughts rolling like boulders,
Ready to crush anything in sight.
My heart sinks,
Tear rolls down my cheek,
My stomach in kinks,
This is the end.
His eyes grow wide,
And I drown,
In the dark water I hide,
There is no way to rewind.
~Alice
