Hope For Someday

You’re sitting there with vacant eyes. Why have you shut me out? Why aren’t you sad? Are you afraid to cry? I slide over on the couch, Hesitant, and aware. I lift my hand up, And run my fingers through your hair. I want to speak, To say something to help. But I know that words… They won’t break this shell. So, I sit here with you, Silence all around us. Basking in the agony, This tragedy has brought us. I close my eyes, Turning my head away. Wishing that these scars would heal, Hoping that we'd be ok, somehow... Someday
