Flower petals fall
Listen close...
Shards of a broken mirror lie on the bloodstained...
A young girl's hand so red and sore...
Ink falls to paper
Words begin to form shadows on the pure white...
I waited so long for hope to come.
Restless nights and fights against the sun...
My heartbeat sped,
Like that of a runner sprinting the last two feet...
Curtains bellow in the evening breeze.
Night is arriving soon, it seems...
