I grew up watching the life drain out of her eyes
I grew up watching her lose her spark bit by bit
I grew up watching her sniffle at every word; watching the big fat drops drip like a leaking faucet with no fix
I grew up watching her smiles turn fake, watching her jaw clench at his unruly words
I grew up listening to her pain,
Grew up watching her suffer out loud
Not silently underneath pillows but screaming from the couch on the hall
I grew up watching this movie
This violent, scary movie
And I never liked scary movies
They made my hands tremble and eyes water
But I have been watching this movie for years
With the one hope that it'll come to an end one day
All movies do, don't they?.
