Poems
May 2017
She/Her
I stared at my reflection
and saw a different person
Same face, same body
but different souls
I could see through her
the scars and bruises
bullets and knives
All inside her
I smiled, she did
I could feel her pain
Killing her again and again
But she's a warrior
There's a story behind her dress
A melody in her skin
A lost note in her hair
A burning desire in her eyes
She uttered a word
I couldn't guess
She asked for my hand
But I ran away
Little did I know
I was running away from my reflection
I couldn't get to places
Because I couldn't save me
