emotional pain

 Screams
She hears screams
Not screams for help
But screams of anger
“If you listen to me!”
She hears everything
“It’s not my fault!”
She tries to stop from crying
“You stupid mother fucker!”
She can’t help it
The sound of them fighting
“just listen to me!”
It gets to her
On a deep level
“I don’t want to fight with you.”
No one will understand
They love each other
Why are they fighting
It’s a stupid thing
They both know that
Too much ego does this to couples
Why can’t they see it hurts her
In a corner
Hiding
Crying
Eyes are bloodshot red
Make up runs
She cries herself to sleep
Still feeling like crying in the morning
She goes to school
Sees her friends doesn’t say a word
Smiles
Laughs
As if nothing happened
