Shadow of a Girl
By ShadowFlight
Chairs surround tables
that line walls
crowded with cups and cigarette smoke
chatter and flashes of color
artificially sheltered from grey mist
falling rain
love sits opposite, hate together
wild fresh washed hair
falls over a shoulder
and the only marring of perfect makeup
is one tear streak
only substance
on the shadow of a girl

Tears are sometimes the only thing about someone that isn't fake. Loved it, I stopped being a shadow of myself years ago. Now I'm only genuinely me. ~MS~
