A Half-Shinning Love Poem

She views herself with a mirror that’s fractured by her scars.

She’s scared and she asks herself why.

Her hand is bruised. She stares; watching thoughts flow as time deepens wounds.

She lives under a dark ocean and I float on the surface,

I love you. And the words echo through the chambers of the ocean and down into her.

I love you. And the words fall through cracks of the mirror broken down.

I love you, and I’ll float on the surface until you feel this fresh air.
