She Replied
Complete in itself with a start, heart and end,
It explained all in her mind,
One sentence she uttered provided her truth,
One sentence was all she replied,
And there was no retort, no snappy comeback,
There was nothing to argue against,
Because, her statement, it cut to the bone,
The way it was quickly expressed,
So he turned and walked, fled from the scene,
He had his answer which wasn’t “hello”,
She’d stated her thoughts as quick as a flash,
In a sentence with a smoothly said “no”.
