A face.
Unknowingly her story's already written.
A smile.
Lips that will touch her child's cheek.
Her eyes.
One for seeing hurt, the other for seeing healing.
Her nose.
Unable to graze the cheek of her true love.
A hand.
Helping those hurting themselves.
A breath.
Words to a friend in dire need of reassurance.
Her future.
Destined for hurt, because all she can give is love.
Her life.
Given to others because of her nature.
A child.
Unable to know, unable to see, but willing to go into the darkness.
