It wasn't slippery but I fell
I felt weak, hesitant to get up
I thought I needed help
but I didn't
I started to move my legs
It was painful, a little
I can bear it, I guess
I pulled myself up
I looked around
and saw you staring at me
I was ashamed
but I kept moving
You called me
and I pretended not to hear
You shouted
and I ran away
I looked back
and you weren't there
I felt bad not to
notice your presence
You insisted,
I didn't know.
You're waiting outside,
waiting for me, I know
You asked if I'm okay
I said "yes, I am"
Your eyes say you're
worried
but I still didn't care
You asked what happened
I said, "I fell"
You said, "I saw it
but why did you run away?"
I couldn't tell
Then you whispered
"I'll catch you next time"
I heard it and asked "WHY?"
You said,
"I saw you suffer
and it kills me inside."
