The past reflects
a future glance,
a figment familiar
but strange,
and the eyes
that once loved you,
change shape –
and the refuge found,
dilutes –
fades away
with each passing reflection.

and the refuge found,

The world pauses
as I witness
my daughter
her soul
enraptured
my heart in two
bleeds.
Our waking hours,
eyes open,
we fail
to see.
The day
is trivial,
superficial,
and despite its nakedness,
reveals nothing at all.
