Ticking time bomb.

That calmness that I appreciated so much
Means something completely different for her.
I was glad not to have someone "making conversation" to fill the silence,
But to her it was like a ticking time bomb.
Waiting, Anticipating in fear.

I saw her tired, bloodshot eyes that day
as she spoke to me in short breaths.
Always holding on for one more minute,
pushing herself further for one more person...
