She spoke of poetry as though it were her goodbye letter. No- not to the world, but to her pain. And what was baffling about her was how someone so beautiful, both inside-out, be broken and darkened by her past. But something that I was blinded to in the beginning was that even in all that darkness, a light so majestic, absolutely luminous, existed. It was her that was blinded of the true beauty she was blessed with. Her insecurities blinded her of who she really was, of what she could be capable of. She was her own enemy.
