hands moving quickly
as the thoughts.
shaking and sudden
without consideration.
keeping all but everything not to herself,
but to no one.
physically naked
yet blanketted with uncertainty.
fear.
confidence streaks the childs face
as costume paint;
fading off of the skin.
the heat kisses her back with explination
and confusion excused for maturity.
lack of self understanding leaving a void
unfillable in all cruel reality.
the lingering essence of humanity.
