Never Alone - Forever Lonely

[Schizophrenic]

Eyes watched behind relaxed lids,
a blue umbrella walk past their window.

"Do you feel better?"
she asked, after it was all said and done.

Fiddling with her tongue pressed against her cheek,
Amelie peered down at her mismatched socks.

The two sat in silence for a moment,
Jaime waiting patiently - for once.

"Yeah.." she finally responded,
raising her teacup to her lips,
eyes not looking for Jaime,
but facing the wall.

It wasn't that she was lying,
she was merely lost in thought.
Thinking that yes, for once,

I feel better.
And no one had to suffer for it.

Times like this...
were a rarity, if not completely mythical.
