Falling into foreign light
She staggers gasping for air
Her chest tight
Do they see? Do they care?
She does
Watching them move through the world
Where she once was
How?
She wonders
How can they live
While she withers there
Will they step over her decay?
Will they notice when she sticks to their shoes?
Her voice cracks as she tries to yell, "Hey"
Her tears fall so hard,
Her cheeks bruise
He approaches from across the street
"Miss, are you ok?"
She staggers gasping for air
Her chest tight
Do they see? Do they care?
She does
Watching them move through the world
Where she once was
How?
She wonders
How can they live
While she withers there
Will they step over her decay?
Will they notice when she sticks to their shoes?
Her voice cracks as she tries to yell, "Hey"
Her tears fall so hard,
Her cheeks bruise
He approaches from across the street
"Miss, are you ok?"
