sliver of silver

she had attempted to colour in outside of the box now the silver lining dangled from a broken necklace suffocated her aspirations oozed discontent and sorrow the shine had come off and no amount of polish would erase smudges and impurity nor restore a once lucid soul reflections tore at her heart and strangled in darkness precious metal now a neck tie of craving for balance reprieve from discomfort aberrations and delusions pendant to be relieved from reversed penchant of life at first she assigned emotions to one crazy error of judgement distortion of passion disillusionment or mere false appraisal yet resentments turned on herself in anger insecurity and fear her whole mindset had been poisoned inflamed to the core only complete reconstruction of Self would yield any success which is when she decided to stop running away to face the truth
