She likes to think
she is elusive,
with a soldered
steel-plated heart,
and that she has made
burning bridges
into a splendid state of art,
yet if you step a little closer
and scale the walls
she has painstakingly built,
you'll find a soul
adept at hiding,
haunted by
shattered dreams that
reek of guilt.
