she gets like this from time to time

i open the door
     dim light reflects
     off her ceiling fan

fetal position
     wrapped
     in long black hair

only if her will
     was as strong
     as her heart

she is like a pale
     porcelain doll
     fragile and waiting
     to fall(to fail)

she gets like this
     from time
     to time

when she sleeps
     w/darkness
     her eyes go black
     as her pillows
     go cold

like watching someone
     eat a loaded gun

i close her door
     and walk away
