+ as she watched those
GAMES
taking place,
she couldn’t
PLACE HERSELF
within their context.
+ felt herself exiting
through the back door
OF HER HEART,
before it could break
further APART.
SOMETIMES
we need to save ourselves
from seeing things.
like when she was
COVERING HER OWN EYES
during certain scenes of
harry potter
as a kid – because she knew,
it would do her no good
to see them.
LITTLE GIRL,
what were you afraid
to witness
(THE OTHER NIGHT)?
