Here,
Standing before me,
Aooears a figure of perfection,
Her eyes,
The lightest of the light,
Shimmering like diamonds,
Amidst the darkness of the night,
Her soft lips,
So perfectly heart shpated,
Her skin,
Gleaming with radiance,
Her flowing chestnut hair,
Lying gingerly upon her shoulders,
But only I see,
The deep cracks her crimson lips suffer from,
Induced by burns received from murderous winds,
The jagged scars,
Inhabiting every inch of her skin,
From the claw-like branches of gnarled trees,
Tearing at her already mangled body,
Her hair,
Thoroughly incinerated,
From fires blazing around her,
Her glimmering pale eyes,
Filled with tears from crisp, cold air,
And the brutal, relentless beatings,
She endures,
Each, and every day
For the heroine she portrays,
And the act she plays,
Tells you nothing of the sort

Welcome to piptalk.
In the begining, I was thinking this is nice, but then as it went on, I realized how intense it became, and how involved in the words I became. Really beautiful, even though you speak of hurting. Your caring is what comes through. That you can SEE her, and tresure her.
I got a lot from this piece.
And I hope to see you post often.
