You’re with him again,
And I’m still here,

No-one has said a word yet.

Across the room I move,
So I am closer but further away
If anything happens,
I don’t want to see.

Inside I want to smash glass across my hands and yours
Just so I can kiss it better for us both

He’s here again
And I want to leave

You know I’m scared as you sense it
He is a shark, as are you

Rain patters, I patter
Slowly
Don’t look at me

I’m doing this for you, you know
I’m doing this for you

Rough hands make there way to my throat
I don’t want to feel anything anymore

I whisper, please don’t touch me
I whisper, I’d rather die

You scream.
