She was giddy with remorse
As she skipped river stones
Off slick rapid rushing heads
Babies belched from below
She stuffed shame in her pockets
It felt the same as the last time
She crammed fear in her white fists
And hopes this is the last time
She put rocks in her pockets
Knowing wet gravity
Walked away from the water's edge
Fell down hard by a tree
Speechless child
Couldn't see the use
Thoughts grew tired
Didn't see the point
She stuffed shame in her pockets
It felt the same as the last time
She crammed fear in her white fists
And hopes this is the last time
As she skipped river stones
Off slick rapid rushing heads
Babies belched from below
She stuffed shame in her pockets
It felt the same as the last time
She crammed fear in her white fists
And hopes this is the last time
She put rocks in her pockets
Knowing wet gravity
Walked away from the water's edge
Fell down hard by a tree
Speechless child
Couldn't see the use
Thoughts grew tired
Didn't see the point
She stuffed shame in her pockets
It felt the same as the last time
She crammed fear in her white fists
And hopes this is the last time
