Shielded her eyes,
felt herself despair...
Wore herself in the mirror,
sob exited her sorrowed lips,
heart fell to her knees,
her knees kissed the ground,
bathed in her salty tears...
Whispers
creeped up to her ears,
gnawed their way to she,
who held herself high...
A beauty plunged in darkness,
to what made her blue,
deadened her inside...
Neither brave,
nor bright,
neither brawn,
nor beauty...
Screamed out aloud,
sound hushed by deafening silence...
None to hold extended hand
to she who cried...
