Her pale shoulder is tilted
She's disoriented
Sipping a bottle of emptiness
The way she falls asleep is unflattering
Crashing down to settle among the dust
She has overstayed
A passenger of the waves
No control
A tone of greyness wraps around her
Revelations slither through a young body
She ignores them
She wants to disappear into nightmares
Momentarily escape into muttered words
She tries to gulp down a tablespoon of enthusiasm
But her skepticism lingers
Footprints stop and stare
and then fade away into darkness
