I know that you are broken
I have seen it in your face
But, like a shard of glass
It makes you more beautiful
As sunlight reflects
On your many fractured facets
I see rainbows on brick walls;
A broken person, a broken world
What could be more perfect?

Outstanding
I liked the simplicity of this poem, your choice of language and the extended metaphor. Beauty comes from within. I liked how you created contrasts in this poem between perfection and imperfection finding beauty in both. A fine poem with a great use of imagery.
