Looking Through A Glass Dome
To Them,
Today I looked at you through a glass dome
I watched the tears fall from your cheeks
Your eyes creased, cheeks growing red
Your voice cracked in the middle of your sentence
I felt your pain, I really did
I wanted to protect you, I really did
Today I watched you through a glass dome
I saw you laugh at the one you once called a friend
You, being more concerned about me
Me, being more concerned about them
Resenting you for what you couldn't see
Watching watching watching through this glass dome
Watching their relationship come to an end
- Your friend, Chelsea Williams
