Reflections

She winced as the blade pierced her skin
Not at the sight brown white red
Nor the pain sharp as a baby's scream in the night
But at thoughts boiling over like a pot on the stove
Feelings that seem as endless as a rainbow
So separated 
Now alone trying to separate herself piece by piece
