SHE.......

She has hair of flames,
and a rage that plays no games.
She has eyes of stone grey
that with a stare can drive anothers bravery away.
She has skin as white as new fallen snow,
that in the darkness,it is said, seems to glow.
She has aboundant tenderness
that lurks beneath her dark abyss.
She has the sharpest of tounge
that has, many an ear, rung.
She has a coldness
that that men find bliss.
She is small in stature,
but far from small in evil nature.
She loves with passion,
but can hate with devistation.
She has a grand mind,
but can belittle any who are not of her kind.
She is like walking darkness,
but knowing her,truly, is adventurous.

I HAVE WRITTEN THIS ABOUT MYSELF...
AS OTHERS PRECIEVE ME AND THE WAY I ALSO FIND MYSELF TO BE!
i did not realize how hard it is to step back and see your real self. not until i sat to write this...
then I did see that I am an emencely,complex,dark, abyss!!
This was written 2 years ago and as I post it now and re-read, I see that some things never change.

harsh words.  Do you really see yourself to be this way or is it more of an exageration?  I did like the poem though.  Very well written.

Quite interesting!  I like this line, because you've used the image of stone, which in my mind, conjured up a great stone wall, and then described the eyes driving the bravery of others away.

Quite a cool piece of work!

Thank you all once again.
I try hard in my poetry to make the imagery so that you can almost see what is there in your mind.

...Joy...Harsh they may be
but it is me...
and I like me.
