Escapril 18: an act of creation

Scratch scratch, scratch scratch
Her hands work a page
Icy eyes track your every move
What happens in your mind?
A far-off stare
But so focused on me
It takes my breath away
What world do you live in?
How can you be so detached
And yet so in tune
With the world around you?
Was it worth your soul?
Was it worth spending every day
Slaving away
For a single act of creation?
