again reaching for the mask.
shutting myself out again.
and again she cries.
Author notes
i have this thing about the word 'again'.
i don't know why.
wasn't sure if the word in the title counted.
i presumed it did not.

Something repeitive words work and sometimes they don't...I think this is one of the times they do. Good luck.

No, title doesn't count

I feel the 'again' is a little repetitive but also found it worked well, the flow drove within it and created beautiful imagery.
Thanks for entering,
