Drip
Drip
Drip
The tap was dripping again
Drip
Or so she thinks
Drip
She rolls her eyes
Drip
Drip
Walking into the kitchen
Drip
Drip
Putting her bag down
Drip
Drip
Drip
She calls to her child
Drip
Drip
Drip
She calls again
Silence
She moves to the stairs
Silence
Silence
She calls again
Silence
Silence
Silence
She walks upstairs
Drip
She opens the door
Drip
She sees nothing
Drip
Drip
She searches the house
Drip
Drip
She finds no one
Drip
Drip
Drip
She walks toward the attic stairs
Silence
She opens the Door
Silence
Silence
She turns on the light
Silence
Silence
Silence
She looks up

Drip

She screams

I can see it
You try to hide it
But you can't
Because I've seen it
So
Many
Times
Before
I try to help
But you won't let me
And all I can think is
Why?
I know your pain
Do you want to feel it?
I don't want you to
But you won't let me help
I just wish I knew
Why?
I want to help you
I need to help you
Please let me
Seeing anyone
Who feels that way
It tears me up inside
I want to help you
You won't let me
Why?
All I want
Is for you to be happy
Because when you are
I am too
Because when you're not
I can't possibly be
The thing is
I don't even know you
But still
I feel
And
I
Don't
Know
Why?
