Reflections.

You gaze into that mirror,
Now tell me what you see
"A girl, with no expression"
& She's staring back at me"

"I see her life, her past"

Do you see hidden tears & hurt?

"I see her trapped inside herself"

Ever seen her at her worst?

She's alone & no doubt afraid,
Her world an unwelcoming place.
Her eyes tell no tomorrows.
The shame carved into her face.

You now must strain to see,
As she begins to fade away
She tore her chest before you,
She doesn't want to stay.

She whispers. She screams. She cries; Then leaves.

Though you were willing to help.
You were always a moment too late.
