• And there she sat at her desk
    Eyes swollen blistering-red
    And there she sat learning math
    Thinking about something he said.

    And there she sat that night
    Up late on her bed
    And there she sat quiet and still
    Wishing for the pain to end.

    And there she sat by a willow tree
    With all the branches hung low
    And there she sat humming a song
    Crying all alone.

    And there she sat not moving at all
    Her body bruised and burned
    And there she sat for the last time
    Thinking about what she learned.

    She didn’t want to let go that day
    Moving on from the painful past
    But she didn’t want to live like this
    So she took her one-last breathe.
