She stood and cried,
The reflection that she saw.
The image staring back.
To her was full of flaws
Her hair was thin and brittle,
Now flowing like a river,
Her eyes were not bright or wide.
Just squinting little slivers,
She wasn't truly happy
With the way she felt she looked
Many told her what she thought.
So, she hid in little nooks.
Her heart was full of love.
A love she wants to give.
She knew there would be a time.
She`s have the life she wants to live.
One a cloudy day
She decided she was done.
She wanted to hide away.
The suddenly out comes the sun.
Her sun was a light.
The brightest of them all
It only took a moment.
For this girl to fall
Noe when she takes a look.
And sees herself back in the mirror
The sun shed her a light.
That made her see herself cleaner.

Violence Begets
"Any last words, cowboy?" "None you'd understand, sodbuster." "Funny. That's Marshall Sodbuster to you. But I meant some last nugget that would help us in the adjudication of the myriad offenses counted against you and your gang. I wasn't asking for penitence."
