And:

like an artist she covered her bruises with makeup.

she dresses like an autumn model year-round

cloaking herself with long sleeves and denim jeans.

Her:

mother tried to beat the beauty out of her.

disgusted by watching a flower bloom

and looking in the mirror-

to see her own wilted pedals.

Her:

father sharpened his tongue,

dipping it in poison before he chose to speak to her

bitter because 15 years ago,

he became a father to a daughter instead of a son.

And:

She was like a magnet

drawing the negativity out of people,

the ugliness shot out at her like fireworks

she was burned, scarred, and breaking...

But:

Just. Only. Breaking.

her hope lustered throughout her misery

She:

dreamed for an escape

so she lived and cried by day

then dreamed and soared by night

Because when hope and dreams are the only things you have left;

you're left with an infinity.




A/N:
