truth be
told
you're one
of those
misguided
souls
who're pre-
disposed
toward picturing
perfection
given flesh
toward spending
your whole life
holding
your breath
as for the
featured
sweet release
I fear you've
built her
piece
by piece
and forced her
fully formed
from
the mirror
a dream
that dissipates
as you
draw nearer
a wondrous
wish
(when un-
fulfilled)
who pirouettes
on pedestals
'til tarnished
with a
single
witnessed
topple
fantasy's
a fearsome
act
to follow
