She wobbles when she walks,

Dazed out of her mind.

Her eyes unfocused,

Blurry vision distorts.

Tears silently leak,

Breath caught in her throat.

Hair obscuring her face,

So it won’t choke her again.

A sniffle escapes,

The rips inside her inflame.

Without understanding what happened,

Simple words: “Tummy hurts.”
