Hidden little person
down on her knees,
crying and screaming
her secret pleas.
Wanting her freedom
afraid of the light.
Recurring past and
resurrecting fright.
Invisible stones bury her mind
beneath her sullen tears,
shaking and shivering,
wrapped in her fears.
Watching her life
from behind closed doors,
riping and tearing boards from the floors.
Throwing a fit
and bruising her hand,
alone and confused
in no mans land.
Peering through windows
covered in paint,
suffocating air
making her faint.
Cutting her wrists
and pulling her hair,
trapped inside
the girl in the mirror.
Maybe in me, maybe in you. Maybe
in a best friend you thought you knew?
I wrote this on 2/18/98 but I'm now ready to share it.
