nobody that looks
at her
ever stops to wonder
why white porcelain
does not crack
(it does).
nobody that loves
on her
knows her heart
and the words she whispers
to the moon
(she screams).
she is broken -
on the inside.
to the world she is
a statue.
she is a dreamer -
in her soul.
to the naked eye she is
vanity.
she holds the world
between the folds
of her robe,
and when asked -
she bows.
her sad eyes
meet the ground
where her fate
lies
just like the shattered
remnants
of the ones
who stood proudly
(before her).
