did you see
the way her eyes
were screaming for help
while she said she was okay?
did you feel
the way
her knees shook
as she ran
catching her train
of thoughts?
did you hear
her voice crackle
as she laughed
at your dumb joke?
did you taste
the salty tears
that ran down
her pale lips
the other night?
No, you didn't.
all you did
was pat her back.
All you did
was ride
that tormenting
train ride.
All you did
was laugh along
with your joke.
All you did
was kiss her lips
thinking she'd be fine
thinking it'd be over.
