Poetry: When you look at me

by SJX

Created on: March 27, 2009

I am frozen and exposed
But strangely unafraid
There are reflections in your smiling eyes
Indecipherable, but I know you see only me

I feel myself breaking, blooming
And i want to be better than I am
To be what you see in me
To live up to your possibilities

You watch me when I shine
And pick up the pieces when I crumble
And I know you see every fragment
Every crack and every shard
But I have never felt more perfect
