| Dark Reflection by larafairie @ deviantART |
I saw an old friend,
One long absent and feared lost
To time’s meandering path,
Location unknown,
An artifact from my past
Brought into the light once more,
A damaged woman
Whose healing and redemption
Was never a guarantee.
The fate of rash hearts
Is often desolation,
Eternal exile and grief,
But she has survived,
A renewal of the life
She was always meant to live.
Welcome back, old friend.
It’s nice to see you again
In my mirror’s reflection.
