Daisy Tyrrell Poet Blank verse

Beauty Within

I didn’t understand my beauty inside
so I cried such fountains from my eyes
nobody knows about my thoughts
And the scars on my body 
from the people who taunt

I could only cope with the relief 
With all my surrounding grief
It’s hard to stop once I’d begun
Although it hurts more knowing what I’d done

Nobody understands so they just shout
That makes me feel worthless, about myself with doubt
What will make them listen?
Without a fight
After all it saves me another malicious bloody night

So this poem is ending 
 I need to find an alternative
From the sharp tools across my skin
And hopefully I will find my beauty within

Susan Gentry August 26, 2018 at 12:15 AM Congratulations on your win. This really touched me. Your perspective and insight is astonishing given your age, which is something most be people will only dream of having. Thing is, we never see our outsides like other people see us and waste so much time worrying about it. Take care, talk to someone cause we are not in this alone, and keep writing.

Virginia Waters August 23, 2018 at 2:01 AM 14 is from experience ( yes, suicide, whether to run away - how to even) the worse year. Survive 14 and the fight get won with a little less battle each year.Imust write on this I guess - but so many - big subject. I got sent an angel in form of a teacher at 14 - so am here still. Ask and look for the help and answers. Soupmail me if you think my story might help you. Funny, in hindsight - we had an organic farm and one rifle with crooked sights. No poisons, pills, - how to? Love always- V

Line Gauthier November 3, 2017 at 7:27 PM Anyone who is so talented at writing from the heart is obviously beautiful. I'm not sure how old you are but the more poetry you write the more beautiful you get. Especially when you start finding beauty around you in nature and in everyday occurrences... that's a fact ! Daisy Tyrrell November 4, 2017 at 4:15 AM thankyou, i respect your comment although i am 14 years old and if i was pretty why does the world hate me x

Daisy Tyrrell November 1, 2017 at 4:58 AM most of my poems are based on true story's, a lot are about the fact i have suffered depression and suicidal thoughts, although i continue to fight that battle every single day of my life. it encourages me to express my thoughts but at the same time following my writing goal xx
