Isobel
The first day of spring she finally stopped breathing
Silent postscript to five days of waiting
Eyes wide open unblinking unseeing
She chose her moment well gracious to a fault
She waited til they had stopped watching
She waited til they were distracted
Smiling over pictures of her prairie gone-by past
Smiling over pictures of a girl with a mind like glass
Clear and sharp but shattered
Clear and sharp but shattered
Clear and sharp but shattered
And then she left
She left
Silent postscript to five days of waiting
Eyes wide open unblinking unseeing
She chose her moment well gracious to a fault
She waited til they had stopped watching
She waited til they were distracted
Smiling over pictures of her prairie gone-by past
Smiling over pictures of a girl with a mind like glass
Clear and sharp but shattered
Clear and sharp but shattered
Clear and sharp but shattered
And then she left
She left
