Mellifluous Murmurs

The Day I Learned Why

I tried to draw a family picture today

It was missing someone,

but being the fairytale 6-year-old I was, I cried and drew her anyway.

I tried to draw my family picture last night

It was missing someone

but I learned the beauty of her facial appearance- she was so beautiful, yet innocent, I think I fell in love with her

I drew her

I perfected her,

yet she still wasn't there to see my picture.

I tried to draw a family picture today

I was all alone

I looked at her picture in my heart

She is still so beautiful

yet so damn mysterious.
