I know this much, my place
my world, bare naked
always open to rejections
but nevertheless
I live to hope

can you, would you
casually remember to inquire
how I am doing
can you see
from the other side of a mirror
an old version of me
reflected in you?

not knowing was
your excuse. you tore your own soul-
turned it into scraps
pieces that cannot, would not
fit together anymore

my heart burnt with bitter tears
at the thought of you
lost in someone else's arms
bearing not a single part of yourself
or me

someday you'd wake up
and realize what part of you existed
then you will see
I am still inside you
hoping, waiting
for you

(((myanimalcracker))) to hope

WoW!!! is a mild understatement as to how your words move me,,, Here's to you Ms C your beauty your selfworth,, you are so worthy,, Here's to Hope, Faith and Life

i see a shimmering
reflection
of you
as though through heat rising
from within

Thank you
