She lifts her eyes from the floor, only to see that the colors of the world have faded. She looks down at her shoes to make sure she’s still where she’s supposed to be. Her insides scream, all the while, she’s looking just fine on the outside. Occasional bursts of tears tell you she’s not okay. Darkness looms in her head. She’s frozen in sadness; unable to force a smile. No one knows what to say… maybe there is nothing to say anymore. Looking down at her shoes, she holds onto knowing she’s still where she’s supposed to be.
