Work In Progress
She looked up to the sky
Saying "I want to fly
Like the birds
Dissapearing"
She says this everyday
Because she can't realize
Her worth
She doesn't know
She can cause landslides with her words
And hurricanes with her mind
She will never notice
The mark she is leaving
On everyone she meets
Because she is too busy
Peering inside the treasure chest
Of everyone else's thoughts
Slashing her image in half
Shattering the mirror
That reflects her heart
Her mouth is a music box
That sounds broken
Cut up and distorted
Years of abuse does this to a person
Because of this she will never see
The head that turn when she walks by
Not because she has dressed herself in
Tight clothing
High Heels
And dark makeup
That is all a cover up
A representation of what she believes she is now
Broken and looked at as an object
It is because she has true beauty
She is a whirlwind of lovely
A tsunami of grace
Well this is no where near finished but tell me what you think :)
