Disorder

Perfect ringlets shine,

Strands coated in glass.

Expressive eyes meandering, 


For what?


A pair of fragile lips move,

Struggling to give reason to the clamor upstairs.

The words strained by the barricade--

The wall confining the brain, regulating the mouth.


A heart, oversized,

Longs to thrust its contents,

To spill itself forward,

To make itself known.


The lack of explanation befuddles bystanders,

Who know not what it all means.


And neither do I.
