Her blue eyes full of sadness
a storm is behind those eyes
she cant cover it with smiles
no matter how she tries
every one can see it there
For it is her soul that cries
Sometimes she looks feral
like a wild thing been caged
I wonder when it will happen
when will she show her rage
I wonder what is written
on her life's next page
The pain inside of her heart
I can see is all to real
I wonder why at times
It is all she seems to feel
Why was love not given
something she had to steal
Then I see her strength
As it also shines through
Like a brilliant ray of light
to her self she will Be true
And then it finally hits me
This is a mirror I am looking In to
The person that I am seeing
Is not Just a lonely she
And this woman I am seeing
Is really Inside of Me

Oh so sad, I love your picture. It's amazing how you did that. Introspection is a good thing to have but also must love yourself. This is a really nice write. Keep writing.
