• I see her standing there
    But does she know?
    I don't.

    She's looking at me
    And saying something
    I don't hear her.
    Can she hear me?

    I wonder what she's thinking about now.
    Maybe school? Romance?
    I don't know.

    She's telling me to come near
    I can feel it.
    She needs a shoulder
    but can I support her?

    She's hanging on to me
    Is she desperate?
    I don't know.
    She's crying.

    What's wrong?
    What happened?
    The words die in my mouth.
    I want to say them but it doesn't feel right.

    I can't say anything.
    She understands.
    The only thing I can do now is to support her.

    She says that we don't need words.
    I can tell from her eyes.
    Beautiful eyes full of warmth.
    I pull her close, right by my side.
