She’s staring back at me

Her face soft, her hair fallen dead around her

I can see her heart beating faster through her shivering skin

Her full lips trembling

She lifts her unsteady hand to wipe away a tear

She is quiet – too quiet

I try to say something – to ease her pain

Not a word leaves my lips

I shudder as I see dark feelings unfolding in her forever changing eyes

And after for what seems like hours I finally get up to leave

At the door I turn around to see her one last time

Only to find nothing but an empty room with a mirror hanging from the cold wall

a single chair in front of it

And as if it never happened as if I never met her I take my leave

Away from the girl with the eyes that are shaped like her soul
