Atop the highest shelf
In that little girls closet
Lay the remains of childhood;
Two dolls with dresses aplenty
One teddy bear from a carnival, won by daddy
Two colouring books, one filled completely, the other empty
One box of crayons
Two plastic necklaces, both with pearls
One silver mirror, with a crack down the middle
In bed so neatly tucked
A child slept peacefully
The dog was curled up at the end of the bed, protecting the child
Neither were aware what was going on outside of the child's room
Something roamed the hallways looking for something or someone
The door creaked open but the stranger did not hesitate

Silver Tears of a Golden Time
I know a girl,strong and courageous she was
To brave to ever let someone see cry
Until today, I say to myself
As we sit, her head in my lap, my arms around her
Waiting to hear the story of what has broken my brave little girl
Knowing she will tell eventually, we wait
Combing through her hair with my fingers
While she snuggles in closer to me, wanting me to hold her tighter
I can hear her sniffle into my jeans, when I offer a tissue it is batted away
She shakes her head, I try to push the hair back to see her face
Starting to pull away from my grasp, trying to leave
I push her back, she falls back into my lap with ease,
I am a horse fanatic, a laid-back photographer, and an emotional writer. I love photography and am always wanting to get better. If you ever have any comments feel free to leave them, I love hearing them. I'm half Irish and very proud of it. I'm a former ballerina and currently an equestrian. I've been riding dressage for 7 years. I've fought some battles with myself and I'm a great listener.
