A Picture Put In Her Place

Sketchy outlines of a distant girl;
the emotionless eyes stare through me.
Shadows existing do not surface here,
his ink didn't embrace them.
Where do those lines lead?
Not to her smile, the one that hides anything of depth and worth.
But let it smile, let her smile,
while her paper browns and curls
and falls from her perfect reflection.
