Reflection
I look ahead, I see a girl
Full of shame, full of pain…
Stripped of…
All dignity, all joy
Hurt by friends…
Betrayed by family…
She has tattoos of permanent tear stains
She speaks…
Everyone hears…
No one understands…
She dreams in the day…
Toss and turn at night…
She has bruises the eye can’t see
Bruises the heart feels…
Memories so tragic
Thoughts of them can kill…
She has big, clear eyes…
Full of everything, saying nothing
Watching this girl…
Slowly beginning to cry…
(Lost in confusion, wondering why)
Suddenly, realizing this girl is I…
