She Sipped

He shook glass
Screamed silence
Ran the walls
She sipped

He slammed his hands
Despised his frustration
Feared his need
She sipped

He called to her
Begged of her
Held out in hope for her
She sipped

He broke apart
Came undone
Was no more
She sipped

Nicely done! The contrast between the anguish and the feeling of indifference is brought out very well.
