Incredulous

Now that she knows

You have washed your hands of her

She sits incredulous

With soft sad tears brimming her huge brown eyes

the exact color of yours

she says,

"All I am is 40 dollars he loses every week..."

I sit incredulous

Hold her close

Heal her pain

Watch her grow

Now that you know

She has washed her hands of you

You sit incredulous

With soft sad tears brimming your huge brown eyes

the exact color of hers

You do not yet realise the depth of your loss
