Love and its reflections

I still don't quite know

What she did to me

Maybe

She restructured my bones

And burned my skin

.

I fell to pieces one night

And all the things she saw

I was sure

Would never be erased

From her mind

.

I still don't quite know

How she talks

With such bright joy

And the way our eyes meet

Makes me feel like

I should never be afraid

To speak again

.

She goes away one night

And after she leaves

I leave my old self behind

Playing hide and seek

With the pictures I have of her
