Sober Eyes Realize

Sober eyes declare her sanity
and mirrored stares reflect her virtue
Who is this girl that travels alone?
This girl with wild eyes and a frail complexion?
She seems to look about herself and understand
that in her darkest moment she is not alone.
For within those frantic eyes
is a knowledge that although much can be taken from her,
she is still herself.
No matter what claws at her remaining innocence.
Everyday she starves with a hunger that something is missing.
What drives her each day is the realization
that she has no arms to retreat to,
no hands to lie in.
Realization that only sober eyes can make.

This kind of thinking is absolutely important. There are many things that only silence can teach us. But we run from loneliness, often, and sadly never learn them. Keep thinking, and keep writing.
