Renewal

I met someone today

Someone I've known forever, yet never really known

she was a beautiful girl, yet she wrapped

herself in a blanket of insecurity

She was a determined girl, yet dependant on

everyone but herself

She was an affectionate girl, yet gave love to all but

those who were derserving

She was an eloquent girl, yet she impressed

for all the wrong reasons

I stood in the mirror, staring at her, staring at me

And all I thought was how very little I envied her

How self-concious and plain and naive she was

I looked at her and decided

We'd never meet again.
