A heart solid enough to love
Not yet strong enough to withstand breaking
Body of a woman
Mind of a child
A soul divided
What am I?
The mirror splits in two
Glass reflects
Jaded blues
And a steel smile
Glass reflects
Precious purity
And blind innocence
I walk along the edge of
Something unknown
The line ends soon
What awaits me
At the end?
Not yet strong enough to withstand breaking
Body of a woman
Mind of a child
A soul divided
What am I?
The mirror splits in two
Glass reflects
Jaded blues
And a steel smile
Glass reflects
Precious purity
And blind innocence
I walk along the edge of
Something unknown
The line ends soon
What awaits me
At the end?
I wrote this for my creative writing class, our theme is "duality" and I chose to write about being on the cusp of childhood and adulthood. Suggestions are welcome and encouraged.
