Sticks and stones may break my bones
Your words, they surely kill

Words by Between the Trees
Photographs
Never thought
I never knew
All those times I saw you
But its over now
Well, it still doesn't make it right,
I should have protected you,
Somehow, some way, in any way
From this
From now
'Cause you're all down
And broken
You don't care anymore
All those beatings had everything from you
Dear Caitlin, I'm sorry
I should have known
But I didn't
And you never told.
I looked at the photo Mrs.O'Koren had passed to me. The whole stack of them. She had simply given a manila envelope with a note attached ,"I just don't know what to do." At first, I was puzzled but soon, I heard the story from the gossipers around town. I was sorely tempted to burn them or throw them out but for some inexplicable reason, I couldn't. I didn't know Caitlin that well but I don't think she would have liked that. So I looked at each and every of them. I looked so constantly and for so long, I had long memorized him. I always felt a strange twang when I studied the picture of them together. It was some time before I realized I was envious of how well he knew Caitlin. His eyebrows, dark and heavy always came together no matter what it seemed, be it if he was scowling or smiling. The same dark look each time. I shook my head and put them back in the envelope. I locked the drawer and left the room with just one last thought.
I'm sorry, Caitlin.
