Sobbed
I Sobbed Like A Child
Who Had Fallen For The First Time
And Who’s Mother Was No Where Insight.
To Help Reason With The Pain.
I Sobbed Today
With A Broken Heart
But Fear Of Discovery
Held My Cries Back.
Pleading With The Powers That Be Not To Let Her Go.
On The Floor Curled Into A Ball
Arms Bent Over My Head
Like A Defenceless Man
Having To Take The Beating.
Sobbing, Uncontrollably,
‘Till His Eyes Are Red,
‘Till His Body Ached
‘Till There Were No More Tears To Cry.
