Reflections

REFLECTIONS

She sat there so expressionless,
so I asked her `is there something wrong`
She said that, she wasn`t quite sure, she`d felt this way so long..

I reasoned that her heart was broken,
and her conscience badley bruised,
The little girl inside of her was lonely and confused..

`Its never too late I told her,` to turn your life around,
she just sighed deeply as her eyes shifted to the ground.

I reassured things would get better, 
she looked up and shrugged, `ya they might`,
Slamming my fist down I yelled NOT without a fight!

Just then I thought I saw a spark. within her deep blue eyes,
I could have been mistaken,...
But a MIRROR, seldom lies.....
