I hate the way her beauty,
Radiates from her milky skin,
Lust from within,
Craves my sin's,
Killing me inside while destroying my pride,
Even though I know it's only skin deep,
She refuses to pay any mind to me,
Above and beyond,
With her pretty halo and shiny wing's,
Trapped within the benefit's that her beauty bring's,
Withered inside yet still her body bleed's,
Craving she need's more than simple beauty,
And how does no one know,
Beneath her golden glow,
She feels so ugly underneath,
Cursing the monstrosity of her beauty,
Hating ever stare and every passing glance,
Slowly going mad for no one can see past,
The skin the lips the breast's the sensuality,
The essense of the curves,
A blessing she doesnt think she deserves,
Trapped within the caccoon,
Mystified by the lies of pale creamy flesh,
Standing in the mirror she can only detest,
This monstrosity,
The curse of her birth is beauty,
And yet no one cares,
So obvious in all their stares,
About her heart her soul and the feelings,
Burried beneath,
The lies and hate inside,
Enraged by the,
Monstrosity of her beauty,
Growing darker all the time,
She refuses,
To continue to live,
With this physical crime,
Without reason without rhyme,
She grabs a knife,
Cutting away the outside,
To show everyone the true color's,
That bleed on the inner canvas from underneath,
The mask of her beauty,
No longer chained,
To the perfection's of her flesh,
Tearing away her breast's,
For she can no long live,
For she can no longer See,
For she can no longer be,
A monstrosity of her beauty...

Thank you much. I think we have all felt cursed by our supposed blessings.

Ohh! This was so dark and strong, it made me frown and concentrait, you have a very strong control over words and emotions. I really enjoyed this poem but the only thing that kind of was bothering is some grammer issues, simply but they take a little bit of the piece's beauty and strength. I am sure you can fix them.
Love
