Her

words bouncing off the corners of her mind
and thoughts that bring back memories.
her heart so fragile in that time
and wisdom was elusive.

but who am I to judge?
it was only me.

painting her story
writing her portrait.
love & hate
truth & lies
forgiveness & betrayal.
who knows that girl?
the girl inside.
she doesn't even know herself.

pain enters her body and engulfs her mind.
her heart changes from pure to corrupt.
no going back.

and her heart is like a late night bar.
emotions spill out on the floor
as the glass shatters all around the door
