She lays, curled tight in a ball

The moon shining its hollow light through her window

Her head hurts from dehydration

For her body grows dryer with every tear that falls

A bitter metallic taste floods her mouth

As she bites her forearm to muffle the sobs

The sobs that come from her gut

The ones that almost turn to screams of agony

And soon the dehydration takes over

Putting her to sleep

And her tight ball of a body, falls limp
