From the outside her life was fineas all thought it should be, all except her.They would never know the emptinessthe gaping hole longing to be filled.She did what was expected of herpreserved the perfect picture.Watching as if from the outsidelooking in on a stranger.He appears elusively on her horizonpulling her from her shell to meet him.She discovers so much of herselfhe brings color and beauty to her world.Oh such wonders are discoveredshe never dreamed they existed.Emotions unleashed in a torrentwashing her willingly downstream.She ponders her feelings, so mixedsometimes wondering why it happened.Struggling to keep the perfect illusion aliveblossoming in her other world.By Hippygirl Written November 28th, 2001 © on Nov 28 2001 02:09 PM PST   18 • 0 • 8
