A Girl Alone in the World
Her eyes cried,
tears fallen from the sun,
bitter days passed
and she found herself
standing alone
Looking for philosophy
among the stars,
she spoke in the language
of the crickets
Seeking to find
some meaning
that runs deeper
then the river bed
where the stones
are cool against her feet
A sense of being,
quiet discovery
of knowing she is all alone
where the world has left her,
but some peace is found
within
She stretches her arms
to the sky and wonders
at catching a shooting star,
knowing it would burn
through her soul.
