She is a natural beauty, with skin so fair

Her face reflects, in the water, where

The forest trees join her, in sweet repose

Though keeping an eye on her, lest she expose

The vulnerability, for just a moment or two

A vision of one, whose pain pulls her through

Never allowing the others, to find her like this

She keeps herself hidden, so near the abyss

Of water, before her, will she make the connection?

Is it really her, she sees, or merely nature’s reflection?
