Latest Poem: Reflection
And it said to her,
"Look up.
I'm beautiful,
And I'm a reflection
Of you."

It smiled down and
It lit the way,
And as she began to cry,
It began to rain.
The tears streamed down,
The thunder crashed,
And suddenly,
She felt the urge
To fly away forever,
Maybe go somewhere
More beautiful than she,
And take it in
In gasps of awe,
Without ever knowing
That it wasn't real.

She can feel her bones here,
The weight of all her sorrow,
Jabbing her body
And beating it
Into submission.

So when it smiles,
It smiles inside
So no one else can see,
And so does she.
