&quot;You&#039;re only given one little spark of madness; you mustn&#039;t lose it.&quot;<br /> -Robin Williams


A young girl

who watches as deaths stagger

tearing the threads from an already broken heart

who understands what her classmates cannot fathom.

A young girl

who watches her reflection plaster a smile upon her delicate face

carved from heartache and loss.

A young girl

plucked from the rosebush

budding and harmless in reality’s hands

who takes one last look around her

only to see blood

before being dropped to the soil.
