Mirror
Her hands were entirely blue, blue to the point of transparency
They seemed to sink into the fibers of the book she clasped
Filling with the pages and words
Her dark eyes, you could see right through them
The tears, the blood thick tissue, all transparent
I could see right into her soul
Her torso hid behind see-through blush lace and silk
somehow remaining unseen
Just as it wished, I would imagine, just as she wished
Her legs shone with bruises, as the unmarked skin faded away
Providing hints of the galaxy hidden underneath her dress
Where violence came to pass
Her lips faded into her face became visible only when they moved
Right now they tremored as to speak
They spoke a whisper
A breath to leave, a decision made, a new strength reached
And then I looked away from the mirror
