The Portrait
A girl swallowed by the world
shows no emotion,
yet she cries inside.
Her eyes show nothing from first glance,
then they change.
Just as the world swallowed her,
her eyes swallow you.
They engulf you in her sorrow
and suddenly
...nothing.
The picture changes,
the girl is gone.
Now replaced by you,
the mood changes.
No longer does her sorrow engulf you,
but you to her.
Just as inside her,
the picture shows you.
The lightening is now nothing,
the sky bold blue,
the tears stars.
The world is new.
Another day has come.
The girl leaves.
Now replaced by a woman,
her feelings overcome.
You disappear.
Yet again the picture is new,
and you stand to admire.
The girl reappears
to stand with you.
Her view has changed,
as did yours.
The world is new again.
The woman is replaced with a man...
Step into my mind.
