Description
I.It's as if watching the stars in the sky
how fast she moves
one breath, always there
the next,
gone
sunk by the turn of the world.
The trail of fire can be seen
by those who know how to watch
a secret
she tells no-one
II.
Her hair tumbles in the wind,
away from
the glass-empty eyes,
snaking into knots as it grasps for
nothing,
behind her

"Sunk by the turn of the world" is an excellent phrase in an all-round very good poem. Was it written specifically for the Runaway Girl?

Not the one you are thinking of... no, not really.

When I think of the Runaway Girl, I just think of delicious spinach and cheese lasagne. Not that that's what your poem made me think of...

They changed the name shortly after. Do the new place still do food, do you know?
I'm at now.

Gosh.
This is outstanding. It's most likely one of your best pieces. It is simply stunning...
I'm sorry; I really don't have any other response but adoration.
Keep writing. You're professional.
