                                                   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

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.

You're very kind.

"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...
