"Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space "between the notes and curl my back to loneliness." ~Maya Angelou, Gather Together in My Name


Look into my eyes.
What do you see?
Your reflection staring back at thee?

My eyes disguise
What lies beneath.
A life full of suffering
Horror
And grief.

And no matter how hard you try,
Your reflection will show.
And that is all you will ever know.

Because in truth,
You use my eyes.
My eyes are merely your mirror.
