I don't know why
We fought.
I don't know why
We couldn't forget
About everything
And let our
Lives carry on
Together.
I don't know why
I was crying,
I don't know why
You were shouting
So loudly.

All I remember
Is the blow you
Served me
Across the cheek,

The door, slamming
Shut,

And the rain falling
On my face
As I ran after you,
Barefoot and shaking,
Afraid your weren't
Coming back.
