her face

Saw a girl...

On the train...

Her face in pain...

Black eye...

Bleached hair...

She didn't seem to be aware...

Of the cause...

The reason why...

The blood shot eye...

Stared into space...

Finding a place to rest...

Empty thoughts...

No less...

Her hand on the rail...

Holding up her strength...

Through the frail.
