that girl is poetry
she bleeds ink
onto paper skin
her grey eyes tell stories
of haunted graveyards
and midnight kisses
tears of glass and hands shaking,
craving the feel of a pen
she sits in the coffee shop
with her nose in a book
and her journal clutched tight
to her trembling chest
that girl is poetry
