"Except"

by Chai

Except for the way
She walks alone
No one can see inside of her
A broken heart

It's there in the turn of
Her head down left
Grey sidewalk friend
Gravel grind underneath her
Dragging feet

Why can't they feel the
Heavy load in her smile?
They don't stay a while.

Except for the way
Her eyes wander to the wall
You can't tell at all
How much she's hurting

Maybe if you touch her
She will open.




"NATURE is what we see,
The Hill, the Afternoon—
Squirrel, Eclipse, the Bumble-bee,
Nay—Nature is Heaven. "

- from Poem XXXIV by Emily Dickinson


"Love yourself now for the hope you have. You wouldn't be working on yourself if you didn't have hope." - from John Bradshaw's Creating Love
