She couldn’t sit still
She was daydreaming about him again
She loved everything about him
He could do no wrong
She couldn’t sit still
He sometimes scared her
She felt the love fade
He was a monster
She couldn’t sit still.
She pictured his monstrous look
She thought of his good side
The bad outweighed the good
She couldn’t sit still
She had to find him
She ran out of the room into a road
He was waiting for her
She felt safe
She got in the car with him
She couldn’t sit still
She felt uneasy
He wore that dreadful smile
They were gone into the night
No one around to see
She knows now she cannot trust him
She couldn’t sit still….
