finding grace among the rubble

girl = sorrow

girl = sorrow

what if a girl was sorrow? 

what if a girl was wishing wells filled with dead dreams scattered on the cobblestones?

what if a girl was a single candle in an old house that has gone years without feeling sunshine?

what if a girl was ghosts that have forgotten the path home or the name etched on the doorway?

what if a girl was stepping stones left behind after leaving?

what if a girl was lips after a final kiss?

what if a girl was gravestones in neat rows that haven’t seen footsteps?

what if a girl was clockwork that would never tell the right time?

what if a girl was goodbyes?

what if a girl was backward glances?

what if a girl was a glass half full and could never hope to be full as long as she kept looking for brighter places?

what if a girl was sorrow and she never stopped looking for more to savor?
