Her

It poured onto the pages of a paper 
Devotion to those close whom raped her

Solitude was her out cry
Numb to the clue as they looked in her eyes

The image reflected was there in their tyes
As their prized gem shattered in pieces loosing her shine

Faded glory could not be set in an engagement ring
But when overheated out came her bling

So it was blinding to those who inherited
Subjected her to thoughts unmerited

Then came the magnitude
That enhanced every bit of her attitude

For it did not keep her subjected to four walls
Much like Rapunzel except she had curls

Nolonger locked away, Nolonger is she tethered
Becoming of her, her limits unmeasured
