REACTION

Shuts her eyes
And sees it all
Skips a beat
Smiles loud and clear

Opens her eyes
It’s all too bright
A tear rolls down
That drops to the ground

Clasps together her trembling hands
Purses her quivering lips
Wobbly legs
Make their presence felt

Looks around
He’s still there
Turns her face away
But it’s too late

The impact was forceful
It all comes back
Things unfold
Yet it’s all fuzzy

Walks away
A heavy heart
Mulls over it
Why this??

Let this pass
Oh please let this pass
