i know a girl
whose hair is of satin strands
and shining bright eyes
tell you about her
but they
tell you only the lies.

she kisses with
her arms wrapped around limp
with her eyes open,
and with her heart closed.

she sees without seeing,
feels without feeling,
lives without living.
shining bright eyes, they
meet the world without
any sort of compromise.

tall and strong; you'd never suspect
she's the weakest inside.
she'd tell you she loves you
but she doesn't know what love is
and even more so;
she doesn't believe.

i know a girl
her green eyes bright,
who looks straight ahead
she stands up tall
but cant move from her head.

she lives with a passion
lost where it's needed
she follows her heart
unrelentlessly unheeded.

however; she looks without seeing
is without being,
falls without feeling;
the pain that she's healing.
