and she stepped on every crack.
Her curves were in the wrong places
and her voice came out in rasps.
She avoided every surface
made of glass, and people too. //This line is strange. the stop on the comma breaks up the flow, and when I read it I thought "and people too" what????
Anything that reflected
what she thought she really knew. /these two lines don't make a sentence
But one day as she stood
on the edge of a river, calm //calm is a forced rhyme might work better with a period but, I doubt you speak that way puting the adverb in the rear.
Her eyes flowed like streams
and her hands shook like palms //I think of palms as being on a beach, not a river
As she suddenly caught a glimpse
of what she never dared to see;
A beautiful shard of chaos
and said, "This is Me". //I'm pretty sure that the rythm broke here, though I'm pretty bad a the whole rythm thing so I might be wrong...
