when she looks in the mirror
she can reflect in the past
it's all a mystery how the little voices
keep dancing inside her
visions of light come pouring into her mind
they talk but they don't listen to her
her world only turns when she closes her eyes
the images
she sees are spirits waiting
to form within her soul and body
they look to her
like a child who looks up to her father
she seeks the truth
like a mother she lays men on the wayside
her spirit is taller than her body
her love is greater than her body feeds
she's the child within the woman
she visits the images every single night
if you see her face
you can see she's miles away
and light years away from the world we all know
she's got the sweetest smile
and the gentlest features you can imagine
Orlando Florida December 1996
