Flawed Perfection
Radiant and lovely she sits.
Her lips curved into a sensual smile.
Calm stillness poetic form,
Her heart beats with passion,
A breath, among Arden flowers.
I could see the façade behind the mask;
Absolutely beautiful in the lamplight
In suffering lull, torn innermost,
Emotions, she's cracked and broken
Creating an illusion of perfection,
Covers the imperfect to ignite an image
Of flawlessness; not flawed, a vase of sunlight.
