Second Row Angel

Zombie-eyed stare
At the back of your figure
Hair tousled by the wind and
Hours of sleep
or lack thereof
Brown strands of interrupted grace
Highlighted with golden pieces throughout
Wildly untamed, jazzily teasing my ear.

Beautiful hot pink
Laced up bodice
On thin frame
Please come unplugged
Be here to talk and
Share you stories
The extent to which.
List them like the lace
Wear them with pride and some sass.

Shadowed eyes veiled behind
Laquered lashes.
Hiding behind what you don't know
Feel it and let it think.
Clarify your chaos from the
Laced lace pieces that
Bind your heart to your front
Keep it close and slowly
Unwind with pen.

  1. I can't quite begin to tell you how reading this makes me feel...in a very, very good way.

  2. There is a girl in one of my classes who breaks my heart with every glance I take her way. She is beautiful, but every ounce of the soul she lets show seems to have an extremely difficult time accepting this.
