Thought Provoking

thought provoking silence
makes a girl
sad

a shattered mirror
where shards glisten
of dreams  although beautiful
are dead

Internal
reflection I
am still searching for something

But firework sparks
have glistened in the monlight
where
I am so mesmerized
that i pause to intakke
a single breath

SO cool
is the air
as I watch puffs
of my warm breathe
mingle with heavy thoughts
that cloud my brain
drift away

I see fog rising around my feet
and everything just seems to dissaper as 
the dew tingles my face
and
I am cleansed
Bathing in this silence to better understand
the beauty of my character unblemished by the 
Uglyness of society
I am downtrodden and yet 
I look even closer
and begin to believe that My heart
is thriving and
my smile is derived only from my 
knowledge that
I am
beautiful
