It sits perfectly still on display with no flaws in sight
She's a breathing trophy to the ones who gifted life
proof that they did something right
She's an excuse to brag
never taken off display
just something to point to
to validate themselves
they earn the credit
And She's so good
until She's not
And She makes them so proud
until She doesn't
and when She doesn't
when She finally chooses
She's shoved to the back
not in sight
She's nothing
so she feels nothing
She is nothing
so she runs
and the trophy falls towards the ground
the process
it's slow motion like
it's beautiful
peaceful almost
She glides
and then
It shatters
shards everywhere
a breath of relief
that She's now truly nothing
