James Fraser Poet Quatrain

Hurting Beauty

Trials and tribulations
A hurting beauty cries
Years of being a slave
Internally in despise

Mental torture bites
Her heart bleeds tears
Eyes of scarlet drips
Release her inner fears

Thoughts of tomorrow
Emotions so in tear
Windows become her doors
In translucent open stare

To walk through these openings
A new future welcomes she
Past trials and tribulations
For now, she is free

Sharon Tideswell July 19, 2010 at 2:30 AM James, this is an intense write. I have two possible interpretations of her escape from a troubled life but I'm not going to ask, I'd prefer to ponder on those two different outcomes. Excellent ~ Sharon :)

Carolyn Devonshire July 17, 2010 at 11:56 AM It sounds like you're writing from experience, James, the words have such a ring of truth and reality. I, too, peer through windows to find freedom from past troubles. Very insightful, dear Highlander. This one goes to my faves! Love, Carolyn
