Lost between two heart beats
her eyes stare into nowhere
her mouth a silent question
‘ Tell me, why should I care ? ‘
Memories like falling leaves
swirling through her mind
as dreams lie yet forgotten
still shackled, unassigned.
She searches for her answers
what questions should she ask ?
her thoughts become her doubt
as she hides behind her mask.
She wanders through her reverie
a teardrop hears a sigh
still searching for a reason
on her lips the question ; why ?
