Why the river flows

By rainbowgoth

She hugs him
She cries
He kisses her
She dries her eyes
He walks away
She tries to smile
As he turns around
But she can't
It hurts too much
The hapiness is gone
Only pain remains
She hides in a corner
She lets the dam break
The rivers flow from her eyes
Smearing her mascara
She dries her eyes
Washes her face
Takes a shower
Washing him away
Changes her clothes
And thus begins a new day
