In the meadow between here and there
She cannot seem to let go of ither place
The beauty of her surroundings in each
Grasping her inner soul with divine force
Leaving her breathless in the shadows
Cascading the after tears of such turmoil
The dawn rises in one realm
As it hastily lowers in the other
The reflections mirroring life and death
As the artist paints the final strokes in her
... ever seeing eyes.
