Do you see that reflection?
A girl with scars inside and out.
She looks young but so tired and weakened,
Left to hide underneath the long hair
Flowing down her pale and fragile body.
.
If you can catch a glimpse of her unique eyes,
One blue and one green, it's almost as if
You can feel the agony she's been through.
.
However, just by this image in the looking glass
You'll never fully know what's turned her this way
Or the pain and trauma running through her mind.

A New Beginning
Tony couldn’t sit still, crossing and uncrossing his legs, trying to calm his trembling hands as Clara stood at the office window deep in thought. The airline ticket in his shirt pocket moved to the beat of his heart¬– each beat bringing back the nightmare causing memories of the words he’d spoken over ten years ago. Thanks to Clara he’d finally gained the courage to buy that ticket.
