Frozen Air

As morning flutters down again
Resting heavy beneath her eyes
The surface glinting only pain
As thoughts survey the skies
As the monotony of entirety
And the voices in her head
Scream abusive iniquity
And turn the sunrise red
As she wakes from open eyes
To readjust an empty mask
Between reality and disguise
She reviews the task
But what is on her mind?
What fear fills her sight?
What mystery undefined,
drains her of her might?
As the day dawns on recurring lies
What lifts her from her bed?
Through monotony of broken sighs
And voices in her head
As all around her screams and shouts
with lies to make her shrink
What gives her strength to carry on
If confusion is all she thinks.
What strength she must have within
To withstand so well such pain
And though battered by the din
She always stands again
She tries to bear it all alone
Though unsure how to cope
Admirably seeking to be stone
Despite lacking any hope.
Demons never try to claim
Those who do not pose a threat
So within her brittle frame
She must truly make them sweat
As voices try to drag her down
She gasps for lungs of air
Yet I know she need not drown
Because God prepared her flair
And planned a purpose she could see
That scares the devil's reign
A purpose she could know for free
Once freed by God from stain
Sometimes she lets me see
This heart of God's design
But other times I see debris
That crashes through her spine
And yet I wish she'd be more open
More honest, more true, more real
For she was not designed broken
But to stand in loves ideal
When she closes up in despair
And pushes the door to
My words are lost on frozen air
For I say 'I'm proud of you'

Please tell me what you think

    I like the rhyme scheme.. nice poetry.. the words flow nicely.. "Demons never try to claim
    Those who do not pose a threat
    So within her brittle frame
    She must truly make them sweat"

    Beatiful, beautiful words!

    devils reign - devil's reign as reign is belonging to the devil
    Gods design - God's design as design is belonging to god
    just those two points really, a good piece, a good flow all the way through. spill ink and twist me into the crazy shape of love...
