Words

As she sits there in the dark
remembering what was said
Her thoughts slowly envelope her
swirling in her head
Her tears they start to flow
her heart it starts to race
emotions overflowing
she cannot slow the pace
Why would he do this to her?
Why would he hurt her so?
Did she do something wrong?
Does he really have to go?
She sits there in the dark 
and tries to get some sleep
his words still in her mind
again she starts to weep

I'm sorry that I contributed to ANY of your tears. Trust, I'm paying off my debts then hopefully when I'm gone forever, the tears you shed won't be because I fucked up. I know I deserve to go and I will if I'll make you happy. I'm sorry with everything in me Jeri Anne??
