In a Room Meant for One

In a room meant for one,
the storm within
shared space
with dysphoria,
the face
looking back
not her own.

In a room holding two,
other thoughts
wrestled her own,
the other voice
accepted
by those who didn't know
the truth.

In a room for one,
she found peace,
found herself
inside,
her identity
able to thrive
as one.

About Christina Anne Hawthorne

Alive and well in the Rocky Mountains. I'm a fantasy writer who also dabbles in poetry, short stories, and map making. My Ontyre tales are an alternative fantasy experience, the stories rich in mystery, adventure, and romance. Alternative fantasy? Not quite steampunk. Not quite gothic. In truth, the real magic is in those who discover what's within.
