The Saddest Part (Free verse) by MacFrantic
However she spoke
the stutter came
Even when
she was sure of the answer
But that
was not the saddest part
However she strode
the hitch arose
Even though
she was sure of her path
But that
was not the saddest part
However she loved
the pain showed
Even while
she was sure of her heart
But that
was not the saddest part
However she wept
the tears never dried
Even if
she smiled for longer
But that
was not the saddest part
However she tried
the hole grew larger
Even if
she filled it with guilt
But that
was not the saddest part
However we mocked her
the words grew louder
Even then
she pled for us to stop
And that
that was the saddest part
