VivienneA

I saw you today,  

Dressed in the prettiest red dress to ever be sewn, 

Wearing the cat eye mascara you always have. 

Your hair waved to me as you flew past. 

I swear I saw you wink.  

Snowboarders, wheres your snow?

Her legs lay limp against a log

Her face, bright red

Heart pounding

Lungs struggling to slow down

Never has she been able to go so far

Never has she been able to push herself without criticism

She kneels down on the track

Feeling the rough concrete on her knees

Sweat trickling down her face like a waterfall

Encouraging eruption noises from strangers she doesn't know

Her head turns ever so slightly

We think of LA as loud and vibrant

You hear cars driving by 

In a place of innocence
