Alone
December 1, 2007 by Gertrude
So damned
determined
going through life alone in her eyes
with other’s love
drowning in her wake
blindly bruising hearts
passing through strangers
and over looking loved ones
keeping them in the dark
causing pain in her omissions
they try so hard to crack her shell
to inch their way in
seeping through broken skin
permeating her icy interior
behind glass eyes
and her distracting smile…
Your words broke me today
thank you
for helping me see
how much better
I need to become
to be as wonderful
as you
I love you.
