Beautiful

Contributed by strange_lindsey on Thursday, 1st April 2004 @ 06:47:42 AM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



Today I took a long look in the mirror. I
wanted to determine whether or not
the lines and curves of my face showed
the hidden anger and torment or a free spirited
little girl. The shape my face
is in is disappointing. I have no beauty
marks, no creases to fit my smile, a
lost glare in my eyes. My soul has been
tortured and it shows in my reflection.
My lips quiver, my eyes begin to tear and I
watch my reflection as a flood of emotion
spills out. For once in a long time, my
face tells the tale of a little girl that has been
trapped for so long. As she gains the freedom
she so deserves, my face changes. Suddenly
my eyes settle and emit a small glimmer of
hope, my cheeks lift and my smile fills the
creases and my face becomes so peaceful
for now, standing in front of the mirror,
I am finally beautiful.

In the eyes, but more, in the words of her art is where she shines so brilliantly and so beautifully.

Beautifully written and it mirrors the writer so well. Thanks for sharing.
