She stands there
in the center
She walks
by herself
She talks
to the four walls
She cries
all alone

Why so short, did you not think of anything else, like I mean you have a good meaning, don’t get me wrong, but there’s no way this is the whole thing, is this like... a snippet?

Wow! So crazy that such few words mean so much and so much of what you described is so real. No fakeness, if you get what I mean?
