Visionary

Marie Flis

Free verse
She sees her.
Staring
Moving with her
Mimicking her....
She looks
Doesn't see
What is happening.
The woman whispers
"Listen to me...you are strong.
You are beautiful.
Someone will be in love with all you are, and never let you down.
That someone is you."
I look at her
And ache.
