Ok, this was written pretty quickly, I was attempting to write out how I was feeling..poetry is a great outlet for emotion. A concrete mask Concealing her soul The masterful facade Of cherished beauty Painted exquisitely Perfection, yes... But horror really The beauty is not hers Molded against her will By those who won't accept Who she is inside Once she blossomed Petals outstretched Reaching Yearning for the sun But now wilting Crumbling to dust Maybe never meant to grow To live To be truly understood She hides Behind the facade Seething Hatred boiling The fuse is lighted Now nearing it's end Only a few Will keep her from the fire But maybe The flames must smolder And slowly die Before she can move on. ------------------ *Krista Knutson* "When you start falling, who's gonna catch ya? I'm willing to betcha, it will be me." ~Faith Hill: It will be me~ |
