her tears began
to mix in
with her spit
as I pulled her only toy
right from her hands,
while she watched
me in distress.
drip drip
It fell from her
parted lips
forming
a little puddle
on the bottom
of her over sized
shirt.
her eyes
revealing pain
and agony
-
I wanted
to warn her
in so many ways,
that life
wasn't going
to be easy.
-
smiling,
I decided
maybe it was time
to give her back her raddle.

I love it - from title to end. The twist is stellar and not predictable. You have a smooth way of words and they flow intensely.

A little mean, but really a nice piece.

Precise imagery.
