she is quiet-
no, she is
silenced-
by the rows
of expectant expressions
pinning her down.
she is hopeful,
painting pictures with words
and narrating with implication,
hopeful
for a future
she won't want to hide from.
she is honest,
but with only her pen,
who seems to understand
her every emotion
without even a spoken word.
she is
dreams,
she is
heart.
she is
full of flames,
she is
fire.
